Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from grease. Consider a very light sanding on extremely glossy surfaces.

Uneven or streaky finish

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply thin, even coats. Check for any dried drips or runs and smooth them out before they fully cure.

Slow drying time

Ensure application is done in a well-ventilated area at an appropriate room temperature. Avoid painting in excessively humid or cold conditions.

Color appears different from the tin

Stir the paint thoroughly. Color can appear different on different substrates and under varying light conditions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or loose paint. A light sanding may be beneficial on very glossy surfaces to improve adhesion, though it is not strictly required. For radiators, ensure they are cool to the touch before painting.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a brush or roller. Two coats are recommended for best results and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer guidelines.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior woodwork (trims, skirting, doors), radiators, metal, and various furniture including kitchen cupboards and built-in furniture (wood and laminate). It is also safe for children's toys. Not recommended for exterior use.

Care: Clean up tools and spills with water immediately after use. The finish is robust and scuff-resistant once fully cured (typically 7 days). For cleaning painted surfaces, use a slightly damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
