Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from wax or oil. Lightly sand bare wood before painting.

Paint finish is not glossy.

Ensure that the paint has been stirred thoroughly before application. Apply a second coat.

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and avoid overloading the brush or roller. If spraying, ensure the paint is properly diluted (10-20% water).

Ensure proper ventilation. Check the humidity and temperature of the room. High humidity and low temperatures can slow down drying time.
