It retards initial drying, thereby eliminating flow defects and improving spreadability. Acceleration of through-drying improves gloss and film hardness. It prevents lifting during over-spraying. Applications in clear and pigmented lacquers and paints based on drying oils, alkyd resins and other oils, primers and baking enamels. Ascinin® P recommended dosage rate in coating system is 1-2% and in baking paints is 0.5 - 1.0 %.
