Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky or uneven after drying.
Ensure even application with a roller or brush, avoiding overloading the tool. Two thin coats are better than one thick coat.
Paint is not covering the surface adequately.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply a second coat, allowing the first to dry completely.
Paint has a strong odour.
Ensure adequate ventilation during and after painting. This paint is low odour but ventilation is always recommended.
