Troubleshooting
Paint is difficult to apply smoothly.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared and free from imperfections. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use. Consider using a slightly different roller or brush type.
Stains are not completely removed after cleaning.
Use a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth. Avoid excessive scrubbing. For stubborn stains, a second application of paint might be necessary after the area has dried completely.
Uneven sheen after cleaning.
Ensure consistent cleaning technique. Avoid using too much water or detergent. Allow the surface to dry naturally without wiping.
Paint peeling or flaking.
This usually indicates poor surface preparation or application over an incompatible surface. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and primed correctly. Remove loose paint, re-prime, and reapply.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust and grease before application. Prime any bare or previously painted surfaces if necessary. Apply in a well-ventilated area.
Compatibility: This emulsion is suitable for interior walls, ceilings, wood, and metal. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first if unsure about compatibility with existing finishes.
