The old paint should be checked for adhesion. Any loose or flaking paint must be removed. The surface should then be washed, degreased, and lightly abraded (sanded) to provide a key for the new paint to adhere to.

Existing sealants typically need to be removed or rendered ineffective (e.g., by etching or sanding) to ensure proper adhesion of the new paint layer. Consult the sealant manufacturer's recommendations if unsure.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and dry before application. Re-prepare the surface and apply a primer if necessary.

Ensure paint is well-stirred and applied evenly. Use a good quality roller and maintain a wet edge during application. Apply a second coat if needed.

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a small amount of water may be added sparingly according to manufacturer instructions, but avoid over-thinning.

This can indicate insufficient ventilation, low temperatures, or the application of too thick a coat. Ensure good airflow and allow more time for drying. Avoid recoating until the previous layer is dry to the touch.
