Troubleshooting

Easel angle is not stable

Ensure the locking mechanism for the easel angle is fully engaged. Check that all hinges are clean and free of paint residue. If the issue persists, the hinges may require tightening.

Paint tubes are difficult to open

Gently warm the cap area with your hands or a warm (not hot) cloth. Avoid using excessive force to prevent damaging the tube.

Wood case is warped or sticky

Ensure the case is stored in a dry environment. Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely before closing. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme humidity.

Brushes are stiff after use

Ensure brushes were cleaned thoroughly with soap and water immediately after painting. Allow them to air dry completely in a natural position (not upright with bristles down) before storing.
