Can I use the kit outdoors?

Is there a recommended sealant?

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or clumpy.

Add a small amount of water to the paint and mix well before use. Ensure the paint has been stored correctly.

Colors are not as vibrant as expected.

Apply multiple coats of paint, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next. Use the white base coat if the rocks are dark.
