Troubleshooting

Paint is peeling or cracking.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared before painting. Remove loose paint, sand the surface, and reapply the paint, following the application instructions.

Paint is not adhering properly.

Make sure the surface is clean and free of contaminants like grease or dirt. Use a primer if necessary for non-porous surfaces. Ensure the paint is suitable for the surface material.

Uneven finish or coverage.

Ensure you are applying the correct number of coats and allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Use the appropriate applicator for the surface.

Paint colour is not as expected.

Ensure you have the correct colour. Variations in colour appearance can occur due to lighting and the number of coats applied. Always test the colour in an inconspicuous area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
