FAQs

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The paint dries to the touch in approximately 30 minutes.

Can I paint over the Zinsser Covers Up Spray?

Yes, you can paint over it with any paint after about two hours.

What kind of stains can it cover?

It is designed to cover common ceiling stains, including water stains and minor imperfections.

Is it safe to use indoors?

Yes, the low-odor formula makes it suitable for interior use. Ensure adequate ventilation during application.

What is the coverage area of a single can?

The coverage area of the 400ml can depends on the application, but it is typically enough for several touch-up spots.

What is the shelf life of the product?

The product has a shelf life, typically several years, if stored properly in a cool, dry place. Check the manufacturing date on the can.

How do I clean the spray nozzle?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If it clogs, wipe it with a cloth or use a pin to clear the opening.

Troubleshooting

Spray nozzle clogs or spits.

Wipe the nozzle clean after each use. If clogged, try using a pin to clear the opening. If the problem persists, replace the nozzle.

Uneven coverage or drips occur.

Ensure the can is shaken well. Hold the can at the correct distance (approximately 12 inches) and apply in even strokes. Avoid spraying too much paint in one area.

Stain is still visible after one coat.

Allow the first coat to dry completely (about 30 minutes) and apply a second coat. For stubborn stains, a third coat might be necessary.

Paint does not match the existing ceiling color.

The flat white finish is designed to match most ceilings. However, in some cases, the color might not be an exact match. You can paint over the sprayed area with your ceiling paint for a seamless finish.
