FAQs
How do I clean the applicator pad?
Clean the pad with the appropriate cleaner for the type of product you used (e.g., mineral spirits for oil-based paints, soap and water for water-based paints).
Can I use this kit on walls?
While the kit is designed for decks, concrete, and similar surfaces, you might consider the Paint Pad Kit for Walls and Ceilings (HowsePAD2) for walls.

The kit is suitable for oils, treatments, and paints designed for exterior surfaces like decks, concrete, and garage floors.
The handle is too long, can I shorten it?
Yes, you can adjust the handle length by using fewer sections. Unscrew the parts to shorten it to your needed length.
Troubleshooting
Uneven application or streaks appear.
Ensure the pad is evenly loaded with paint. Apply consistent pressure and use smooth, overlapping strokes. Check for debris on the surface.

Make sure all handle sections are securely screwed together.
