Two coats are generally recommended for optimal coverage and finish. But in some cases a single coat is sufficient.

Can I use this paint on metal?

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of contaminants. Lightly sand the surface for better adhesion.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply the paint in thin, even coats. Use a high-quality brush or roller. If using a sprayer, ensure proper dilution and technique.

Color is not as expected.

Ensure you've applied the correct number of coats. Allow the paint to dry completely to see the true color.
