POOR FLOW / LEVELLING:
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.

• Re-brushing or re-rolling partially dried painted areas.

• Use of the wrong type of roller cover or poor quality brush.

SOLUTION:
• Use top quality water-based paints, which are generally formulated with ingredients that enhance paint flow. Brush and roller marks thus tend to "flow out" and form 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 levelling with any paint.
