Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/08/2014 -- Paint additives are special ingredients that improve the quality, performance, and functionality of paints and coatings. Paint additives modify the properties of paints to improve viscosity, foam reduction, gloss control, anti-chipping, flow control, and impact resistance and also increase the effectiveness of paints. A small amount of paint additives is added to the coating formulation to ensure durability and enhance the finishing of the coated film. Paint additives are used for coating applications in the Architecture, Automotive, Industrial, and Wood and Furniture industries.
