Troubleshooting

Paint appears streaky after drying

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic brush and applying thin, even coats rather than one heavy application.

Paint is not adhering to the metal surface

Ensure the metal was properly sanded and cleaned of all oils or rust before application; a metal primer may be required for bare surfaces.

Finish looks too shiny or too dull

Eggshell finish depends on proper surface preparation; ensure the substrate is smooth and use an appropriate primer to maintain the intended sheen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal adhesion, surfaces should be clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before painting. For raw metal or previously glossed woodwork, lightly sand the area to provide a key for the paint. Use a high-quality synthetic brush or a short-pile foam roller for the smoothest finish. Once applied, allow sufficient drying time between coats as recommended by environmental conditions. For long-term care, clean the painted surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaning pads that could dull the eggshell finish over time.
