Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and lightly sanded). Consider using a primer if the surface is particularly smooth or non-porous.

Color is not as expected.

The final color can be affected by the wood type, the number of coats, and the level of dilution. Test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Paint is too thick.

Thin the paint with water up to 50% for easier application and a wood stain effect.

Water is beading on the surface after rain

Add UV Clear to increase water repellency if the paint is diluted
