How should I clean the floor after painting?

What should I do if I spill paint?

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly to the surface.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared by cleaning, sanding (if needed), and applying a stabilizing solution for concrete. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Color appears different than expected.

Stir the paint thoroughly before application. Always test the color on a small, inconspicuous area before painting the entire floor. If the color is still off, check the product's batch number.

Paint is chipping or peeling.

Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying the next coat. Also, allow sufficient curing time (72 hours) after the final coat before heavy use.

Bubbles appear in the paint.

Avoid over-brushing or over-rolling the paint. Ensure the surface is not too porous and allow proper drying time between coats.
