Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. On porous surfaces, a primer may be beneficial to ensure an even finish. Apply using a high-quality synthetic brush or roller, maintaining a wet edge to avoid overlapping marks. For cleaning surfaces painted with Joker, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent if necessary. Avoid using abrasive scrubbing pads that could damage the matte texture over time.
