Adding method and processing guidance

The additive can be added at any time of production. Defoamer is usually added in two parts (2/3 of the amount is added to the abrasive, and 1/3 of the amount is added to the paint mixing process or finished paint). Because of its high activity, the defoamer should be added under moderate shear force to ensure good dispersion. Otherwise, it may cause system defects.
