Troubleshooting
Paint is too thick for application
Thin with a suitable solvent (e.g., white spirit) according to manufacturer recommendations for brush, roller, or spray application.
Uneven finish or brush marks visible
Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred. Apply thin, even coats, working in one direction. Allow adequate drying time between coats. Consider using a higher quality brush or roller.
Paint not adhering properly
Verify the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared (e.g., sanded if necessary). Ensure no contaminants like oil or grease are present. Check compatibility with any existing coatings.
Slow drying time
Ensure application in a well-ventilated area with appropriate temperature and humidity. Thick coats can also increase drying time. If conditions are poor, consider a different product or extending drying time.
