- Recommended Dosage
In general the rate of 0.2 - 0.5% of INDOFOAM 1011 calculated on the total quantity of paint system, will provide excellent results. The exact dosage will also depend upon the individual paint formulation. Indofoam 1011 can be directly added to millbase formulation before grinding. It is also advisable to split total dosage into two parts and add each in millbase and letdown stage so as to improve the efficiency of defoaming.
