WHY IS YOUR PAINT NOT STICKING TO WOOD?

[ WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT? ]

POOR SURFACE PREPARATION

Failure to properly prepare the surface of your wood can cause the paint not to stick.

USE OF OLD PAINT

Using old paint can also cause this problem. Paint can deteriorate over time, particularly if not stored appropriately.

USE OF WRONG PAINT 

Another common reason for paint's failure to adhere to wood is when the wrong type is used.

LOW PAINT QUALITY

Using low-quality paint is another common reason your paint does not adhere to wood.

WEATHER

You want to apply paint on a moderate temperature and humidity day, meaning that it is neither too hot nor extremely cold.

The following are things you can do to deal with the problem:

• Prepare your wooden surface properly • Apply primer • Use painter's tape • Use Acetone
