Troubleshooting

Paint not dispensing properly.

Ensure the brush is not clogged and the paint is thoroughly mixed. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes.

Poor adhesion to the surface.

Make sure the surface is properly cleaned, dry, and free from any contaminants like oil or wax. Lightly abrading the surface may improve adhesion.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply thin, even coats. Avoid overloading the brush. Allow adequate drying time between coats. Practice on a non-visible area if new to touch-up painting.

Colour mismatch.

Verify the exact paint code of your vehicle and ensure it matches the product label. Different paint codes even within the same colour family can yield noticeable differences.
