How long does it take to dry?

Drying times can vary; consult the paint instructions for specific details. Allow enough time for it to dry completely before assessing the color.

Can I use this paint on any surface?

What if the color looks different in my room?

How should I store the leftover paint?

Store the remaining paint in a cool, dry place. Ensure the lid is securely closed to prevent drying.
