Troubleshooting

Primer is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before priming.

Stains are bleeding through the primer.

Apply a second coat of primer, especially in areas with heavy staining. Ensure the primer is fully dry before applying the topcoat.

Primer is peeling or cracking.

Make sure the surface is properly prepared, remove any loose paint or residue, and ensure full drying time between coats.

Primer has a strong odor.

Ensure proper ventilation during application and drying. The water-based formula has a low odor, but ventilation is still recommended.
