Poor
Flow - Leveling: Failure of paint to dry to a smooth
film, resulting in unsightly brush and roller marks after
the paint dries.
Possible Causes:
Use of lower quality paint.
Application of additional paint to "touch up" partially
dried painted areas.
Rebrushing or rerolling partially dried painted areas.
Use of the wrong type of roller cover or poor quality
brush.
Solution:
Use top quality latex paints, which are generally
formulated with ingredients that enhance paint flow. Brush
and roller marks thus tend to "flow out" and forms a
smooth film. When using a roller, be sure to use a cover
with the recommended nap length for the type of paint
being used. Use of a high quality brush is important; a
poor brush can result in bad flow and leveling with any
paint. |
