Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Apply using a high-quality brush or roller. If painting over a previously dark or porous surface, a suitable primer is recommended to ensure color consistency. For care, avoid harsh chemical cleaners; a soft cloth with mild soapy water is sufficient to clean the wipeable surface of the paint. Store the paint in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain the product's longevity.
