Troubleshooting

Paint is not dispensing smoothly

Ensure the tube is adequately shaken. If using a nozzle, check that it is not clogged. Try warming the tube slightly in your hands.

Air bubbles appearing in the design

Use a nozzle tube for application and apply steady pressure. If bubbles form, gently pop them with a fine-tip tool before the paint dries.

Paint is peeling or cracking after drying

Ensure the fabric was properly prepared (clean and dry) and that the paint was allowed to air dry for the full 72 hours. Ensure application was on a compatible fabric type.

Color coverage is uneven

Apply a second coat if necessary, allowing adequate drying time between coats. Ensure the paint is opaque and apply with consistent pressure.
