Troubleshooting

Paint is not drying properly.

Ensure adequate ventilation and check the room temperature. Make sure the paint is not applied too thickly. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Paint appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure the paint is well-stirred. Apply the paint evenly, avoiding overbrushing or overrolling. Multiple thin coats usually produce a better finish than a single thick coat.

Paint is peeling or flaking.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (cleaned and sanded). Make sure the surface is primed if needed. Remove loose paint, sand the area, and reapply the gloss paint.
