FOAM BLAST® 384E

Opaque tan liquid

Foam Blast 384E is an effective water-dispersible foam control agent containing highly refined mineral oil, silica derivatives, and organic particles. Tests indicate that Foam Blast 384E is highly compatible and stable in most latex paint formulations and will not cause film craters or fisheyes. Foam Blast 384E can also be used in the monomer stripping process to control foam.
