Description
Antibleed additives are used in waterborne lacquers to prevent the reaction of the coating with tannins present in the wood, which can cause staining.
This problem, known as bleeding, can occur when the substrate has not been properly sealed.
Antibleed additives work by creating a barrier between the substrate and the coating, preventing the undesired effects.
They are typically added at a low percentage, ranging from 1% to 5%, depending on the level of bleeding control required.
