Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance, always start with a clean, dry, and dust-free surface. It is strongly recommended to use a compatible primer, especially when painting over bare wood or metal, to improve adhesion and ensure an even, long-lasting finish.

For long-term care, the dried eggshell surface can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners that might compromise the finish.
