Can I use this paint on wood?

This paint is primarily designed for walls and ceilings. While it can be used on wood, it is recommended to use a primer and possibly a topcoat to ensure proper adhesion and durability.

Troubleshooting

Paint color appears different than expected.

Lighting conditions and the size of the room can affect the final color. Test the paint in a small, inconspicuous area first to see how it appears in your specific lighting.

Paint is not covering the surface evenly.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared, and apply two coats of paint. Using the correct applicator for the surface type can also help.

Paint is peeling or flaking.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly primed before painting. Avoid applying paint in extreme temperatures.
