Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure the pigments are evenly distributed.
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. For wood and metal, a suitable primer is recommended to ensure proper adhesion. Apply using a medium-pile roller for walls or a high-quality synthetic brush for woodwork. Allow sufficient drying time between coats to achieve the desired opacity.
