Paint is not covering the surface evenly.

Apply a second coat, ensuring even coverage. Ensure you are using enough paint and that the paint is well mixed.

The finish is not as durable as expected.

Ensure that a minimum of two coats have been applied and that each coat has dried completely. Allow for proper curing time.
