Hydragloss is designed for applications where gloss, and print performance are important along with brightness and shade. Typically used in high solids carbonate based coatings, Hydragloss' ultrafine plates efficiently generate gloss, print gloss, and coating coverage in wood containing grades allowing carbonate levels to be increased. Replacing standard delaminated or fine kaolins, Hydragloss can be used with carbonate levels up to 70% to deliver an efficient high solids coating that can utilize local carbonate.
