Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and free of dust, grease, or old wax. For very glossy surfaces like laminate, a light scuff with fine-grit sandpaper may be necessary before application.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure the paint is well-stirred. Apply thin, even coats. Use a good quality brush or roller designed for water-based paints. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Paint feels chalky or powdery after drying

This is a characteristic of chalk paint. For added durability and a smoother feel, apply a second coat as recommended. Ensure the paint is fully cured before heavy use.

Surface marks easily after painting

Ensure two coats have been applied for maximum durability. Allow the paint to cure fully (up to 7-14 days for full hardness) before exposing to heavy wear and tear.
