Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and lightly sanded. Apply a second coat if needed and ensure that the surface is free of wax or grease.

Color is not as expected.

The final color can vary. Always test on a small area first to check for color accuracy. Ensure that the surface is completely dry before assessing the color.
