Paint Additives
Available33 products
Additives are used either to overcome certain defects in the paint system, such as foam or flocculation, or to provide certain properties to the paint, such as tinting the color, improving substrate wetting, adding slip to the paint surface, making the paint fire-resistant, and to improve the overall performance.
Color Additives
Paint colorants are mixed into paint bases and floor coatings to tint the paint or coating to a custom color. These paint tints and coating tints enhance the beauty of painted or coated surfaces by adding color.

Anti-Skid Additives
Anti-skid additives, when mixed with epoxy, latex or oil-based paints, stains, or sealers, create a skid-resistant coating for concrete, wood, metal, or fiberglass. Made from aluminum oxide, these additives are frequently used on industrial stairs, decks, and walkways.

Boiled Linseed Oils
Boiled linseed oil is both a thinner for oil-based paints and a coating. As a thinner, it improves the flow and gloss of oil-based paints. As a coating, it creates a shiny hand-rubbed finish on wood and furniture. It increases wood's resistance to watermarks, scratches, and warping.

Coating Durability Additives
Coating additives are traditionally used to improve pigment wetting and reduce foaming during processing. These additives improve flow and leveling and substrate wetting during application. These additives improve UV durability, reduce surface defects, and enhance substrate adhesion in applied coatings.

Paint Solidifiers
Paint and colorant hardeners turn liquid latex paint into a solid material within minutes for fast cleanup and curbside disposal. One package hardens up to two-thirds of a gallon of paint in less than an hour.

Leveling & Conditioning Additives
Paint conditioners add flowing or leveling properties to paint without excessively thinning or foaming. These additives are available for both oil-based and water-based paints. They slow down the drying process to ensure that brush streaks can be eliminated.
