Troubleshooting
Paint is peeling or blistering.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared before painting. Remove loose paint, sand the surface, and ensure it's clean and dry before reapplication. Also, check that the paint is not being applied too thickly.
Paint color appears uneven.
Ensure you're applying two coats of paint, allowing the recommended drying time between coats. Stir the paint thoroughly before use and maintain a wet edge while painting to avoid lap marks.
Paint has a strong odor.
Ensure the area is well-ventilated during and after painting. While the paint is low-odor, proper ventilation will help dissipate any remaining fumes. Make sure you are using genuine Rust-Oleum products and check for product shelf life.
