And can you make even better use of your valuable time? Yes, you can! With FlowControl, you can. Read here to find out how it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What do you struggle with in cold weather?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In cold weather, paint is often thicker than desirable. It takes more effort to apply, and especially when cutting and applying paint to edges and corners, it is too thick to flow properly over the surface and be absorbed into the structure of the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Paint that is applied too thickly will cause problems with drying, resulting in unpleasant effects such as wrinkles and an orange peel effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-image-with-content image-with-content\"><div class=\"image-with-content__outer \n            content-wrapper-common \n            \n            \"><div class=\"image-with-content__image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-with-content__image\" src=\"https:\/\/hildering.prod.pwstaging.tech\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/Flow_control.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"image-with-content__content-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-image-with-content image-with-content__inner\">\n<p>Thinning improves flow but causes its own problems. For example, thinned paint will lose its gloss more quickly and you risk sagging and reduced layer thickness, resulting in insufficient protection of the surface.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Measures to take in cold weather:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Apply the paint heated, for example with the FlowControl.<br>2. Work in the footsteps of the sun, starting where the sun has already heated the surface.<br>3. Screen the workplace from the wind, as this quickly cools both the paint and the surface.<br>4. If possible, heat the surface with IR lamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-endeavour-wp-blocks-custom-spacer custom-spacer\"><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__mobile\"><\/div><div style=\"height:1rem\" class=\"custom-spacer__desktop\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This not only allows you to work outside on many more days of the year, but also to start much earlier on many days while still applying the paint optimally, i.e. unthinned. Not just in winter, but all year round. Except when it is too damp due to dew.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In cold weather, paint is often thicker and more difficult to apply.
