How Patchiness Occurs?

Patchiness primarily arises due to uneven paint absorption rates. Different sections of a wall absorb paint at varying levels, disrupting its spreadability. This results in a rough, inconsistent finish that detracts from the wall’s beauty. Understanding these factors is key to achieving a smooth, consistent paint job. Nippon Paint’s Anti-Patchiness Solutions are designed to address these challenges, ensuring walls that look flawless and refined.

FAQ

How does patchiness occur and impact my building project?

The main root cause is the uneven paint absorption rate of the skim coat. When paint absorption rate is very high, paint will spread perfectly onto skim coat which provide smooth and even surface. On the other hand, when paint absorption rate is very low, paint will not spread evenly, leaving patches and “tiger stripe” stains. Patchiness of surface shows different levels of sheen or glossiness in different areas, creating a patchy look. Such unsightly appearance will draw complaints from buildings owners and affect reputation of paint applicators or even the building developers.
