| Lines of differing colours in the finished coating. | |

|
| Pigmented coating not stirred prior to use. | |
|
Thoroughly stir Mirotone coatings prior to application preferably using a power stirrer. Alternatively use a 20mm wide stirring stick using a lifting motion to ensure that the contents at the bottom of the can are mixed in. | |
| Worn out or incorrectly set up spray equipment. | |
| Replace worn spray equipment or refer to the correct spray gun set up and usage information. | |
| Insufficient overlap in the spray application passes. | |
| Ensure that each spray pass overlaps the previous pass by at least 50%. | |
| Excessively heavy coats applied causing flotation of the colourant. | |
| Apply all Mirotone coatings to the correct Wet Film Thickness as specified on the relevant product data sheet. Apply the mixed coating in lighter coats. | |
| Choice of thinner is not compatible with colourants in the tinted colour. | |
| Only use MIROSOL thinners recommended on the relevant product data sheet. | |
