Paint Problem: Cratering: Vancouver’s Best Painters

Small depressions in dried paint film are caused by pockets of air or entrapped solvent in the wet paint film.  There depressions can occur during application because of improper preparation of the roller cover.  In the case of solvent entrapment, they occur shortly after the intermediate coat or topcoat has been applied over the primer coat>  They cal also result from topcoating a solvent-based product too quickly, using a new roller cover without proper preparation, over-shaking the pa8int, or painting in excessively high temperatures.  Improper use of solvents when thinning the coating may also cause cratering.
