Can I use this paint on outdoor furniture?

This paint is designed for indoor use. It's not recommended for surfaces that are constantly exposed to the elements.

Is this paint safe for children's furniture?

Can I spray this paint?

Yes, it can be applied with a brush, roller, or electric sprayer. If spraying, dilute with water by 10-20% as required.

What is the coverage of one tin?

A 750ml tin will cover a reasonable amount of furniture but this depends on the surface and number of coats.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before painting. Apply a second coat.

Paint is streaky.

Apply thinner coats and ensure the previous coat is fully dry. Use a high-quality brush or roller. If spraying, ensure proper dilution and technique.

The gloss finish is not as expected.

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly before application. Apply two coats for best results.

Paint takes a long time to dry.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Check the temperature and humidity of the environment. Extremely humid or cold conditions will affect drying time.
