Why Are New Car Surfaces So Reflective?
Liquid paint must spread evenly during spraying. Without silicone leveling agents, "orange peel" textures or craters would ruin the finish—like bubbles under a phone screen protector.

How They Work
These additives act as "lubricants," reducing surface tension. Picture a mercury droplet forming a perfect sphere—leveling agents help paint achieve similar smoothness in just 3 minutes.

Innovation Spotlight
New branched silicone agents withstand 150°C baking (crucial for EV battery casings), outperforming older high-temperature alternatives.
