How to Use Sebra Touch-Up Paint on Your Crib

Quick answer

Use Sebra touch-up paint to repair scratches on your crib by cleaning the area, shaking the paint well, applying thin layers, and allowing proper drying time.

Step-by-step application process

1. Clean the scratched area: Wipe the scratch and surrounding surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grease. Let it dry completely. A dirty surface will cause the paint to peel or look uneven.
2. Shake the paint bottle vigorously: Shake the 20 ml bottle of Sebra touch-up paint for at least 30 seconds to ensure the pigment is fully mixed. Open carefully. Skipping this step can result in a watery or streaky finish.
3. Apply a thin layer with a fine brush or toothpick: Dip the tip of a small brush or a toothpick into the paint and gently fill the scratch. Use as little paint as possible—just enough to cover the mark. Applying too much paint at once creates a raised blob that is hard to sand smooth.
4. Let the first coat dry completely: Wait at least 2–4 hours for the paint to dry. Do not touch or test it with your finger during this time. Rushing to add a second coat will lift the first layer and ruin the repair.
5. Apply a second thin coat if needed: If the scratch is still visible after the first coat dries, repeat the application with another thin layer. Let dry fully again. Two thin coats look more natural than one thick coat.
6. Buff lightly with a soft cloth (optional): Once the paint is completely dry (overnight is best), gently buff the area with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to blend the sheen. Buffing too early or too hard can smudge the paint or remove it.
