Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky after application.

Ensure the paint is well-stirred, and apply even coats. Using a roller with the correct nap can help to prevent streaks.

Paint is not covering the surface adequately.

Apply a second coat, allowing the first coat to dry completely. A primer might be necessary if the previous colour is significantly different or the surface is porous.

Paint is peeling or flaking.

Ensure proper surface preparation. Clean the surface and remove any loose paint or debris before applying the emulsion. Use a primer for better adhesion.
