Foam in your spray tank slows filling, reduces usable tank volume, and turns mixing lawn care products into a frustrating process. LESCO® Recede™ Antifoaming & Defoaming Agent is a professional-grade solution designed to control foam before it becomes a problem, making spray tank mixing faster, cleaner, and more efficient.
Whether you are mixing herbicides, pesticides, or surfactant-heavy solutions, Recede helps eliminate excessive foam so you can spend less time waiting on bubbles to settle and more time spraying.
Key Benefits
Reduces spray tank mixing time
Maximizes usable spray tank capacity
Quickly knocks down existing foam
Helps prevent foam during filling and agitation
Safe to add to most lawn care tank mixes
Ideal for sprayers with continuous agitation systems
How It Works
LESCO® Recede™ is a water-based silicone emulsion antifoam and defoamer. It works by breaking down foam bubbles on contact and preventing new foam from forming during mixing and agitation. The result is smoother fills, fewer overflows, and a more efficient spray operation.
Directions for Use
Defoaming (Foam Already Formed): Apply Recede directly onto the foam. Stop agitation and add only enough product to eliminate the foam.
Antifoaming (Foam Prevention): Add Recede after the first ingredient has been added to the tank. Do not add to a dry tank or before water is introduced.
For ingredients that create excessive foam, up to 2 fluid ounces per 100 gallons of spray solution may be required. Actual use rates may vary depending on temperature, agitation, and tank mix partners.
Ideal Uses
Herbicides and pesticides known to foam excessively
Tank mixes containing nonionic surfactants
Spray equipment that continuously agitates the solution
Lawn care professionals, turf managers, and serious DIY applicators
Adding LESCO® Recede™ to your spray setup means faster fills, cleaner tanks, and fewer interruptions. It is a simple addition that makes mixing lawn care products easier every time you spray.
