Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or difficult to apply

Stir the paint thoroughly. If necessary, add a small amount of clean water (e.g., 1 part water to 10 parts paint) and stir again. Avoid over-thinning.

Uneven finish or roller marks visible

Ensure the paint is applied evenly using a consistent technique. Work in manageable sections and maintain a 'wet edge' to avoid lap marks. Ensure adequate lighting to spot inconsistencies.

Poor coverage or colour not hiding previous paint

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed if necessary. Apply a second coat if required. For very dark or vibrant colours, a specific primer might be needed.

Paint is peeling or flaking after drying

This usually indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before painting. Loose paint should be scraped off, and the area re-primed and repainted.
