Troubleshooting
Uneven spray pattern or sputtering
Shake the can more vigorously for longer. Ensure the nozzle is clear by spraying a test surface. If the issue persists, the can may be faulty.
Runs or drips on the surface
You may have applied the paint too thickly or from too close. Apply thinner coats and ensure an appropriate distance from the surface. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.
Poor adhesion or peeling
The surface may not have been properly prepared (e.g., not clean, greasy, or dusty). Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Light sanding can improve adhesion.
Finish is not glossy enough
Ensure the can was shaken adequately to mix the gloss components. Apply additional thin, even coats if necessary.
