Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky finish
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth before painting. Apply paint evenly with a good quality brush, avoiding excessive pressure. Apply in thin coats, allowing adequate drying time between applications.
Paint not drying quickly
Check the room temperature and humidity; high humidity or low temperatures can slow drying. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid applying overly thick coats, as this will prolong drying time.
Bubbles or blistering appearing on the surface
This can be caused by applying paint to a dirty, damp, or hot surface, or by overworking the paint. Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Apply paint when the surface temperature is moderate and avoid excessive brushing.
