Troubleshooting

Paint not covering imperfections effectively

Ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared. Apply a second coat after the recommended recoat time.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Ensure paint is well-stirred and applied evenly with consistent pressure using a brush or roller. Avoid over-spreading. Ensure adequate lighting during application.

Paint appears patchy after drying

This can happen if paint is applied too thinly or unevenly. A second coat should resolve this once the first coat is fully dry.

Difficulty in cleaning the surface

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid scrubbing, which can damage the matt finish.
