Troubleshooting
Paint is not drying or feels tacky after 16 hours.
Ensure conditions are within recommended temperature and humidity ranges. High humidity or low temperatures can extend drying times. Apply thin, even coats to promote proper drying. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Achieving an uneven or streaky finish.
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned, primed, and smooth before painting. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application. Apply with a good quality brush, maintaining consistent pressure and direction to ensure an even layer. Avoid over-brushing.
Paint is flaking or peeling after application.
This often indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure surfaces are thoroughly cleaned, dry, and properly primed. Any loose or old paint must be removed completely. The paint is designed with a flexible film, but it relies on a well-prepared base.

Setup
Prepare the Surface: Ensure all exterior metal and wood surfaces are thoroughly `cleaned and primed` before painting. Remove any loose paint, dirt, grease, or mould. Sand glossy surfaces to create a key.
Stir Well: Before and during use, stir the paint thoroughly to ensure an even consistency and color.
Ventilation: As this is a `solvent-based` paint, ensure adequate ventilation in your work area.
Compatibility
Designed specifically for `exterior metal and wood` surfaces.
Not recommended for interior use or surfaces other than metal or wood.
Care
Application: Apply using a `brush` for an `even layer`. Apply thin, even coats rather than one thick coat.
Recoat Time: Allow `16 hours` for the first coat to dry completely before applying a second coat.
Cleanup: Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with a suitable solvent cleaner (e.g., white spirit) as it is `solvent-based`.
Storage: Store the paint in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the paint from drying out.
