Features:

  • Floetrol is a latex paint conditioner, not a thinner. It maintains and fortifies the qualities of latex paint, unlike water
  • It also improves the coverage of most paints, providing an exceptional value for the money
  • It extends the wet edge of the paint, which gives you the time to create the look you want or correct the mistakes you've made
  • For interior or exterior latex paints
  • Allows paint to adjust to difficult weather conditions, such as extreme hot and cold temperatures or high humidity
Good Stuff. Highly Recommend

I was hesitant to try, but am glad I did. I used this with Behr Premium latex to paint our dated, double-sink oak bathroom vanity. I used a ratio of 4:1. I was alarmed at first because I thought the color looked odd - but patience, patience is what it took to convince me otherwise! The paint dried to the exact color as expected. The brush strokes were so shallow - almost non-existent; and the wood grain pattern came through beautifully. Next project, I also used the Floetrol to paint the kitchen island (Muted Sage, Behr Premium Plus). I decided to spray it on this time. I had ordered the cheap TCP spray gun with the 2.5mm tip here on Amazon. For this purpose, I thinned the paint mixture 4:2:2 (paint : Floetrol : distilled water), I have to say, I was not satisfied with the spray pattern; despite the settings, the paint was delivered too thickly - and would definitely require brushing for me to have nearly the desired outcome. I paint cars on the side, so I do know my way around a spray gun. I figured the 2.5mm tip was too large for the texture which I was seeking; so then I switched to one of my other guns with 1.3mm tip. The paint sprayed-on smooth as silk! The cabinets now look totally brand new, and we used less than 1/4 of the gallon to spray the entire kitchen island! I will continue to use Floetrol. In my opinion it's good stuff, and I recommend its use.

perfect for the job

Has a mixing medium this is the #one suggested product to purchase for paint pouring. I have had no issues with this product. it works great. I first bought a small bottle then realize the better purchase is the gallon.

Works as advertised.

Just like i had expected, i used this product to thin SW Pro Classic latex and made the brush marks almost disappear. I've used in same paint of spraying through a higher-end HVLP unit with equally terrific results. Worth the investment.

Great for acrylic pouring medium

Awesome for acrylic pouring medium

The product does exactly what it said it does. I use it all the time for my ART. However, the packaging was not very professional. The gallon of FLOOD was put into the box laying down, the cover was never checked and it leaked all over inside the box. 1. Should be placed in a box standing as it would on a shelf and packing material or other products support the UP RIGHT position. 2. Liquids covers should always be checked that they are closed and in a locked position and taped. It was a mess to clean off all the 2 oz. acrylics packed with it.

I still add WD40 for more cell like features, but it does the job and doesn't change the paint color, nice fluidity. Will buy again.

Nice Finish

I was a bit skeptical but this stuff works. I had heard old-timers talk about this stuff, but didn't believe it... Now, I believe it. I bought it as an additive help my paint sprayer spray some thick BM paint, but it didn't work for what I wanted (Paint sprayer problem). So, I ended up just painting by hand with the paint I had already mixed. It created a nice shell with no brush marks... I mean just, DAMN it looks nice - It looks sprayed, even though I did it by hand.

Get this for canvas pours works amazing.

If opened and recapped the product does start to clump up a bit I recomend shaking well before and after use. Product works amazing in fluid pouring on canavases.

Makes your crown pop!!!

Makes brush marks go away. Used with high gloss enamel and crown molding looks amazing.

Fantastic product! I will never change to another again!!

I have been using floetrol in my acrylic paints for all types of artwork but especially for my acrylic pours. I have tried several other products, including glue all, but none of them can compare to the smoothness and the effects you get with floetrol. A great product! Here’s a helpful hint, if you find the product comes out a little bit gloppy, use cheesecloth or a strainer, it will help tremendously. The glop has nothing to do with the age of the product, it is strictly because of the type of product it is.
