Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned, dry, and free from any contaminants like dust or grease before painting. Use a suitable primer if painting over a glossy or problematic surface.
Uneven finish or brush marks visible
Apply paint evenly with consistent strokes. Ensure adequate drying time between coats and consider using a high-quality roller or brush. Stir paint thoroughly before and during use.
Stains are difficult to remove
While designed for water-based stains, very stubborn or oil-based stains may require specialized cleaning solutions. Test any cleaning product on a small, hidden area first.
