What surfaces can I use this paint on?

How do I clean my brushes after using this paint?
Brushes and other application tools should be cleaned immediately after use with a suitable solvent, such as white spirit.
What is the drying time for this paint?

Can I use this paint on garden furniture?
No, this product is specifically formulated for sheds and fences and is not recommended for garden furniture or other types of outdoor items.
Do I need to prime the wood before painting?
For new or bare wood, a primer is often recommended to ensure optimal adhesion and a uniform finish. For previously painted surfaces, ensure all flaking paint is removed and the surface is sound.
How many coats are usually needed?
Typically, two coats are recommended to achieve the best coverage, protection, and colour depth.

Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, and free from contaminants). For new wood, check if a primer was used.
Uneven finish or brush marks
Apply paint evenly with smooth, consistent strokes. Ensure paint is stirred thoroughly. Consider using a higher quality brush or a different application method.
Paint appears too thick
Check if the paint has been stored correctly. In very cold conditions, allow the paint to return to room temperature. Thinning may be possible with a small amount of solvent, but consult manufacturer guidelines.
Slow drying time
Ensure application is within recommended temperature and humidity levels. Avoid applying in damp or cold conditions. Oil-based paints naturally have longer drying times than water-based paints.
