Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky or uneven.
Ensure the glass surface is clean and free of any dust or grease. Apply the paint in thin, even layers, and avoid overworking the paint. Use a high-quality brush for smooth application.
Colors are not mixing well.
Make sure you are mixing the colors thoroughly on a palette before application. Use a palette knife or a clean brush to blend the colors effectively.
Paint is too thick.
Add a small amount of the Vitrail Lightening Medium to thin the paint. Mix well before application.
Cerne relief is not adhering properly.
Make sure the glass surface is clean before applying cerne relief. Allow the cerne relief to dry completely according to the manufacturer's instructions before applying the paint.
Paint is not drying properly.
Ensure the artwork is in a well-ventilated area. Allow sufficient drying time (10 hours). Check the humidity levels in your workspace; high humidity can slow drying times.
