It is typically touch dry in 2 hours and can be recoated after 4 hours, though full curing takes longer.

Can I use this on floors?

Troubleshooting

Paint is peeling or flaking shortly after application

Usually caused by applying over a greasy or dusty surface. Sand the area, clean thoroughly with sugar soap, and re-prime before repainting.

Visible brush marks in the finish

Thin the paint slightly with a small amount of water or use a higher-quality synthetic brush. Ensure you are not over-working the paint while it is drying.

The color looks inconsistent

Ensure the paint is stirred thoroughly from the bottom of the tin before use, as pigments can settle over time.
