Troubleshooting
Uneven texture or finish
Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly before and during application, and avoid over-brushing or over-rolling areas that have begun to dry.
Visible roller marks
Use a high-quality short-pile roller designed for emulsion and maintain a 'wet edge' by working in smaller sections to ensure overlapping strokes blend seamlessly.
Poor color coverage
Check if the substrate is too porous; applying a coat of suitable primer before the topcoat will significantly improve opacity and color consistency.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If painting over a dark or porous surface, apply a high-quality primer to ensure the best color payoff for the French Green 187 shade. Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure the marble particles are evenly distributed. For maintenance, the cured paint is washable; simply use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent to gently wipe away marks. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these may damage the matte finish over time.
