Troubleshooting

Paint is cracking after application.

Ensure proper surface preparation. The existing surface should be stable and free from existing large cracks. If it's a new application and the surface has cracks, fill them first.

Poor coverage or uneven finish.

Ensure proper application technique. Apply even coats. Make sure the surface is not too porous or absorbent. Apply additional coats if necessary, allowing for adequate drying time between coats.

Paint is peeling.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, remove any loose paint or contaminants. Check for moisture issues and address them before repainting.
