Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. Apply a primer if necessary.

Mold or mildew is growing on the painted surface.

Ensure proper ventilation and address any sources of excess moisture. Clean the affected area with a mold and mildew remover. Check for any leaks and fix them immediately.

Paint finish appears uneven.

Apply an even coat of paint, avoiding over-brushing or over-rolling. Make sure to use enough paint on the roller or brush, and avoid applying the paint too thinly.

Paint has a strong odor after drying.

Ensure proper ventilation during and after painting. If the odor persists, contact the manufacturer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose paint, dirt, grease, and mildew. Wash the surface with a suitable cleaning agent if necessary. Fill any cracks or holes with appropriate filler and sand smooth.
  2. Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply two coats for best results, allowing the first coat to dry completely before applying the second. Use a brush, roller, or sprayer, depending on the surface and your preference.
  3. Drying Time: Allow each coat to dry for the time specified on the paint can (usually 2-4 hours) before applying the next coat or exposing the painted surface to moisture.
  4. Compatibility: HQC Kitchen & Bathroom Paint is compatible with most existing paints. It's recommended to test the paint in an inconspicuous area to ensure compatibility before applying it to the entire surface. If painting over a glossy surface, lightly sand it to improve adhesion.
  5. Care: Clean spills and splashes immediately with water. For general cleaning, use a damp cloth or sponge with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the paint's finish.
