Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of wax or oil. Lightly sand bare wood before application. Ensure you are using the correct paint for the surface you are painting.

Paint is running or sagging.

Apply thinner coats and avoid overloading the brush or roller. If spraying, ensure the paint is properly diluted (10-20% with water) and that the spray is even.
