There are a wide range of defects which can occur during the production, filling, and the application of architectural coatings, and even afterwards, when the paint film has dried.
This webinar will focus on defects which might occur during these different steps such as foam, burnishing, snail trail formation or cissing. We will show these and even more and explain how they are created and how they can be overcome using products from our broad Coating Additives portfolio.
One example is the burnish phenomena: For interior wall paints it is very important to have a certain mechanical resistance e.g. burnish resistance. This is the ability for a paint to maintain it´s visual appearance after scrubbing the surface with a non-abrasive material such as sponge, clothes, skin or leather. Without this ability the paint film will change its colour or gloss leading to an inhomogeneous appearance. This loss in decoration quality often results in earlier maintenance work. Therefore, improving the burnish resistance not only keeps the surface looking great, it also helps with environmental sustainability by lengthening the renovation cycle.
