Troubleshooting
Uneven color or streaking
Shake the can more frequently during use. Apply in light, even coats from the recommended distance. Ensure the coat is clean and dry prior to application.
Product not spraying properly
Ensure the can is at room temperature. Shake vigorously. Check the nozzle for any clogs; if clogged, remove and clean with warm water or a small pin.
Color appears too dark or too light
This may indicate a slight mismatch with the animal's natural shade. For darker results, apply additional light coats. For lighter results, ensure you are applying very lightly or consider a different shade if available. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Residue on handler's hands or clothing
Allow the product to dry completely before handling the animal extensively. Wear gloves during application if concerned about transfer.
