Materials

I have been working on a project to eliminate flood/float. Here is what I am combining...
Part 1: DIDP, Surfactant, White Pigment, DIDP
Part 2: Part 1, Yellow Iron Oxide, Red Iron Oxide, Special Balck 4
I have tried several surfactants(EFKA, Hydropolat, and Disperplast), coupling agents. Mostly it is white flood/float, but I have also ended up with red and black on seperate occasions. Any input would be helpful!
