Been painting and refinishing various things for a lot of years. Can't believe it took me this long to discover this stuff. I'm working on a big built-in cabinet project. All scratch built. Started painting some of it with sprayer because I didn't want brush or roller marks. But what a nuisance that sprayer is. Wastes paint, takes way too long to set up, gotta put up plastic everywhere, takes too much space to do the spraying. And the CLEANUP -- yuck -- takes forever! I've got a lot of painting left to do on these cabinets. About twelve feet wide by nine feet high. Need to paint the cabinet interiors, face frames, shelves, and 20 doors. So I started Googling to see if I could find a way to paint by hand without leaving brush or roller marks. I found mention of Floetrol on a forum somewhere. Dug further. Bought some. Figured I'd try it on a few of the adjustable shelves to see if I could avoid hauling out the sprayer and all that plastic sheeting for the rest of the project. Just tried it. Shelves were already painted with primer and sanded. Added eight oz of Floetrol to a little less than a gallon of Sherwin Williams Emerald Interior Acrylic Latex Paint (semigloss). Definitely need to make sure you mix up the Floetrol itself -- very gloppy. Then when I added to the paint, I mixed the heck out of it with the paint mixer drill attachment. Used Ace best quality small (4" x 3/8" nap) white woven paint roller to spread the paint. I was pretty generous with the amount I applied. Great news: looks like it was sprayed. No trace of a roller mark. Nice, smooth, uniform coverage. No need to do another coat either. I do think the resulting finish is a little less glossy than it would have been without the Floetrol, but definitely worth it. With so much more painting to do on this project, I'm very glad I found Floetrol. Saved from the sprayer! Review: Good product, good price. - Works as advertised. ## Features - IMPROVES PAINT FLOW & LEVELING: Floetrol latex paint additive conditions acrylic and latex paint so it flows smoothly, self-levels, and dries to a professional finish without thinning. - ELIMINATES BRUSH & ROLLER MARKS: Extends open time so paint stays workable longer, erasing lap lines, brush strokes and roller stipple on walls, trim, cabinets and doors. - SPRAYS LIKE OIL-BASED PAINT: Reduces tip clogging and piston freeze-up in sprayers and cup guns, letting water-based latex atomize and spray as smoothly as oil-based coatings. - PERFECT POURING MEDIUM FOR ACRYLIC ART: A go-to additive for fluid art and paint pouring - creates cells, improves consistency and helps colors flow without cracking. - EASY CLEANUP, GENEROUS COVERAGE: Washable formula cleans up with soap and water; treats up to 300 sq. ft. and works with most interior and exterior acrylic and latex paints. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003IF3FWE | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,293 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #1 in Household Paint Additives | | Brand | Flood | | Brand Name | Flood | | Color | Clear | | Color Code | 00414754 | | Container Type | Can | | Coverage | Improved | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 21,449 Reviews | | Finish Type | [None] | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00010273001703 | | Included Components | cleaner | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Type Name | 1 gal Flood FLD6 Floetrol Latex Paint Additive | | Item Volume | 3.78 liters | | Item Weight | 4 kg | | Manufacturer | PPC | | Model Name | Floetrol | | Model Number | PPG/FLOETROL - FLD6-01 - 1 GALLON #2 | | Paint Type | Latex | | Part Number | FLD6-01 | | Size | 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Feature | Fast-Drying | | Special Features | Fast-Drying | | Specific Uses For Product | Interior/Exterior | | Surface Recommendation | Aluminum | | UPC | 010273001703 733353726401 | | Unit Count | 128 Fluid Ounces | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Flood - **Color:** Clear - **Finish Type:** [None] - **Item Volume:** 3.78 liters - **Paint Type:** Latex - **Size:** 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** Fast-Drying - **Specific Uses For Product:** Interior/Exterior - **Surface Recommendation:** Aluminum - **Unit Count:** 128 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![Flood Floetrol 1 Gal Latex Paint Additive & Conditioner | Improves Flow, Reduces Brush Marks, Pouring Medium for Acrylic & Latex Paint - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CfAWwI23L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this like Liquitex pouring medium? I would like to see if I can use this in pour painting.** A: Watch this video it really helped me understand the different mediums with the same paints. On youtube look for the videos of "deliberatelycreative" and look for the video. "What's the best pouring medium?" She is very scientific and compares them the best I've seen. **Q: can this be used with grout? I have heated floors so grout mixed with water has cracked so looking for an alternative** A: I might be wrong, but I can't see this being effective when mixed with tiled floor grout. Have you considered an epoxy grout such as Laticrete Spectralock? Spectralock worked great when my shower grout developed cracks several years ago - still no cracks. Also, it's mold and mildew-resistant, so my shower is easy to clean. **Q: How much do you add per gallon of paint?** A: Hi, sorry but I actually use this for acrylic painting (art / craft) so my proportions are based on a teaspoon or two of paint at a time... ο˜„ **Q: Can/should you use this with a latex primer such as Kilz Latex 2?** A: Waste to use with an undercoat. Mix Kilz Latex Primer with water to dilute thinner. Mix Floetrol with the top coat Latex for smooth cover no brush marks. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow -- old dog, new tricks *by J***Y on July 30, 2023* Very experienced DIY'er here.
