Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared by cleaning, sanding (if necessary), and priming. Make sure that the surface is dry before applying paint. Ensure that the correct primer is used.

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and avoid overloading the brush or roller. If spraying, ensure proper dilution and use appropriate spraying techniques. Ensure you are applying the correct amount of coats and that each layer has dried properly.

Uneven finish or poor coverage.

Apply a second coat of paint, ensuring even coverage. If using a sprayer, ensure even coverage by moving the sprayer evenly across the surface. Ensure the correct application method is being used.

Bubbles or imperfections in the finish.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Avoid applying paint in direct sunlight or high temperatures. Ensure the paint is applied evenly.
