Troubleshooting

Paint is peeling or flaking.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (cleaned and lightly sanded) before painting. Also, ensure the paint is fully cured and has been applied in thin, even coats. If it persists, re-sand the surface and reapply.

Paint is not adhering properly.

Make sure the surface is clean and dry. Use a suitable primer if necessary. Ensure the paint is compatible with the existing surface and apply in the recommended conditions.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply the paint in thin, even coats. Use a high-quality brush or roller. If spraying, ensure the correct nozzle is used and the paint is properly diluted. Consider a second coat.

Colour not as expected.

Always test the colour in a small, inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface. Lighting conditions can affect the perceived colour. If the colour is significantly off, consider using a tester sachet first.
