Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. If painting metal or plastic, ensure the surface is properly primed.

Paint is peeling or flaking.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, and apply a single, even coat. Avoid applying too thick of a coat. Ensure the surface is free of any previous peeling paint or old varnish.

Color is not as expected.

Ensure you have the correct color and allow for full drying time, as the color may change slightly upon drying. Consider testing a small area with a tester sachet to confirm the color before painting a large area.
