How To Painting Without Brush Strokes. Tips Using Latex M1Extenders.

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

This step details a secondary benefit of latex paint extenders: their ability to act as a flow and leveling additive. This property helps eliminate 'roping' (visible brush strokes) when brushing paint on critical surfaces like window sills and reduces 'stippling' (texture from rollers) when rolling paint, resulting in a much smoother, more professional finish.

Goal: Understand how the additive improves paint flow and leveling.

What they say

Hide

one of the benefits is it's a good flow leveling additive. And what that actually does is when you're actually brushing paint on say an important project like a window sill where you don't want to see what we call roping, which is brush strokes, you add a latex extender or a flow additive and it'll help those brush strokes actually level out and flow a lot better and not show up. So some of the times you can actually use a latex extender. You can use it when you're actually rolling paints too cuz it'll help when you're rolling it. It'll help uh eliminate some of the stippling. So it'll help it actually flow out and level a lot
