Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or wax. Lightly sand the surface if necessary.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply the paint in thin, even coats. Use a high-quality brush or roller. If spraying, ensure the paint is properly diluted and the sprayer is set up correctly.

Color is not as expected.

Ensure you are applying the paint to a surface that is a similar color to the final result. Consider using a primer if necessary. Always apply tester sachets to check the desired color.

Paint is running or dripping.
