Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Lightly sand the surface before application. Check for any contaminants on the surface and remove them.

Primer is not drying quickly.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Drying time is dependent on temperature and humidity. Allow sufficient time for the primer to dry before applying the topcoat.

Primer is showing brush marks.

Apply the primer evenly, avoiding over-brushing. Use a good quality brush or roller. Consider using a spray application for a smoother finish.

Poor coverage.

Ensure the primer is stirred thoroughly before use. Apply a second coat if necessary to achieve full opacity and coverage.
