Troubleshooting
Paint is dripping or running
The application was likely too heavy or the can was held too close to the surface. Apply thinner coats from a greater distance.
Poor adhesion on plastic
Plastic surfaces often resist paint. Ensure you have used a compatible plastic primer before applying the enamel.
Rough or textured finish
The surface may not have been cleaned or sanded properly. Sand the area lightly and ensure it is free of dust before re-coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before use, ensure your workspace is clean and protected from overspray. Surface preparation is the most critical step: surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of grease or dust. For smooth or glossy substrates, lightly abrade the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to improve mechanical adhesion. For plastics, the manufacturer strongly recommends using a dedicated plastic primer to ensure the paint does not flake or peel over time. To maintain the finish, avoid exposing freshly painted items to heavy moisture or impact for at least 24 hours while the paint fully cures.
