How should I store the product?

Troubleshooting

Filler is not adhering to the surface.

Ensure the surface is clean and free of dust, grease, or loose particles. Lightly sand the area to improve adhesion.

Texture does not match the existing surface.

Experiment with different application techniques and tools (sponge, brush, etc.) to replicate the existing texture. Practice on a scrap piece before applying to the repair area.
