Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the canvas surface is clean and dry before painting. If using oil paints, allow adequate drying time between layers. For very heavy mediums, consider applying an additional primer layer.
Canvas appears warped or loose
This is uncommon with proper storage. If slight warping occurs due to humidity, place the canvas in a dry environment. For very loose canvas, consider professional re-stretching services if the issue is significant.
Staples are visible on the side
The staples are designed to be at the back for a seamless edge. If any staples are protruding or visible on the painting surface, carefully tap them down with a small hammer or pliers.
