Description:
Tendency of paint film to
take on the imprint of an object that is placed on it (e.g., a shelf, table,
window sill or countertop with books, dishes and other objects on them).
Possible Cause:
• Use of a low quality
semi-gloss or gloss paint with low print resistance.
• Putting a painted surface back into use before paint has fully dried.
Solution:
Use top quality semi-gloss or
gloss paint. Low quality latex semi-gloss and gloss paints are not
recommended on areas that may have objects placed on them like window sills
or fireplace mantles. Poor print resistance is more prone to occur in warm,
damp conditions. Fully cured oil paints also have excellent print
resistance. Make sure the recommended "cure" time is allowed for the paint
before it is put into service . Cool or humid conditions require more curing
time.
