Troubleshooting
Paint is not adhering properly.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Clean, dry, and lightly sanded surfaces provide better adhesion. Consider using a primer if needed.
Uneven finish or brush marks.
Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply the paint in even strokes and avoid overloading the applicator. Multiple thin coats usually produce a better result than one thick coat.
Paint appears to be cracking.
Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying paint. Apply thin coats and avoid extreme temperature fluctuations during drying.
