Visible roller marks or streaks
Ensure you are not spreading the paint too thin. Apply a generous, even layer and avoid over-working the paint once it begins to set.
Patchy or uneven finish
This often occurs if the surface was dirty or greasy. Ensure the wall is thoroughly cleaned and dried before starting. If missed spots occur, wait at least 4 hours before touching up.
Paint not covering darker underlying colors

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and free from any dirt, grease, or loose flaking material. Using a brush for edging and a medium pile roller for larger wall areas will yield the best results. The paint should be stored in a dry, temperate environment to prevent freezing or heat damage. Once the project is complete, clean your tools by wiping off excess paint with a cloth, followed by a thorough wash with clean water. If you have leftovers, do not dispose of them in household drains; check your local Community RePaint collection point to dispose of the product responsibly.
