How Important is the Spreading Rate?
Most painters apply the thinnest possible coat of paint. However, the effectiveness of any paint/coating depends on how it is formulated and how it is applied. In order to compare one paint or waterproofing coating with another, you must compare paints with the same percentage of volume solids. We believe it is essential to understand that the benefits from the use of any coating depends on applying the coating at the proper coverage or spreading rate to develop the necessary dry film thickness so that you get the results you want from your application.
