Why Choose Floetrol? Floetrol is a water-based paint conditioner that transforms the performance of emulsion and acrylic paints, making them behave more like oil-based paints. It adjusts to various environmental conditions, ensuring your paint flows smoothly regardless of the weather.
Benefits:
- No Thinning Required: Unlike paint thinners or water, Floetrol improves paint flow without diluting its inherent qualities or color.
- Spray Gun Efficiency: When used with a paint sprayer, Floetrol reduces pressure by up to 20% without affecting the spray pattern or performance, preventing clogging and reducing wear and tear on the spray tips.

- Brush and Roller: Ensures a smooth, even finish without brush or roller marks.
- Roller Application: Reduces roller pressure, preventing paint buildup at the roller’s edges.
- Spray-Like Finish: Achieve a spray-like finish when using a roller.

Mixing: Shake the Floetrol container well before use. Add Floetrol to the paint as needed:
- Brush or Roller: Add 7-10% per liter of paint. Increase up to 15% if necessary in extreme temperatures.
- HVLP & Cup Gun Sprayer: Add 5-10% per liter of paint, adjusting as needed for consistency.
- Airless Sprayer: Add up to 10% per liter of paint.
- Faux Finishing: Add 20-25% per liter of paint, being cautious with vertical surfaces to prevent sagging.
- Clean Up: Clean all tools and equipment with soap and water after use.
Important Considerations:
- Compatibility: Test a small amount of Floetrol with your paint to ensure compatibility.
- Sheen Reduction: Floetrol may reduce the sheen in gloss paints but will not alter the color of matte or semi-gloss paints.
- Usage Restrictions: Do not use Floetrol in clear varnishes or oil-based paints. For oil-based paints, use Owatrol Oil for similar results.
