FAQs
Do I need to apply a sealer over this paint?
No, this paint is self-sealing and designed to withstand outdoor conditions without additional topcoats.
Can I use this on glass surfaces?
Yes, this paint adheres to glass, but ensure the glass is thoroughly cleaned and free of oils or fingerprints before painting.
Is this paint safe to use on items near pets?
Yes, the paint is non-toxic; however, it should be allowed to fully cure before pets come into contact with the painted item.
How do I clean my brushes after painting?
Because it is water-based, simply wash your brushes with soap and warm water immediately after use.
Can I use this for indoor furniture projects?
Absolutely, the durability that makes it great for outdoor use also makes it an excellent choice for high-traffic indoor furniture.
Will this paint work on concrete?
Yes, it is highly effective on concrete and masonry, provided the surface is clean and dry.
Troubleshooting
Paint is peeling off plastic or metal surfaces
The surface may not have been cleaned or sanded properly. Strip the affected area, lightly sand the surface, and reapply in thin coats.
Streaking during application
Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush or foam roller and apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy, thick layer.
Longer than expected drying time
High humidity or cool temperatures can slow curing. Move the item to a well-ventilated, dry area to facilitate faster drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and degreased before application. If you are painting plastic or slick metal, a light sanding can help improve mechanical adhesion. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the pigments are properly suspended. Apply using a soft-bristled brush or a high-density foam roller for a streak-free finish. For care, simply wipe down surfaces with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution if they become dusty or soiled; avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that could degrade the finish over time.
