This Frenchic Wall Paint in 'Mermaid for a Day' is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a durable, easy-to-apply, and aesthetically pleasing finish for interior walls and ceilings. Its key benefit is the ultra-matte, washable, and scrubbable surface that requires minimal preparation due to its self-priming and self-sealing properties. A potential caveat is that while suitable for many surfaces, it is not recommended for very wet areas like shower surrounds.

While coverage is excellent, two coats are recommended for the best depth of colour and maximum durability.
Yes, it's suitable for interior walls and ceilings in bathrooms, but it should be avoided in very wet areas like shower enclosures or bath surrounds.
Yes, the paint is EN71-3 certified, making it safe for use on children's toys and in nurseries or playrooms.
A 2.5L tin covers up to 35m² with a single coat. With two recommended coats, expect coverage of approximately 17.5m².
No, this paint is self-priming and self-sealing, eliminating the need for additional primer or topcoat products.
Once fully cured, the paint is completely scrubbable. Clean spills and marks with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent and rinse.
It has an ultra-matte finish, which is a sophisticated, non-reflective surface.
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and free of grease or dust before application. For very slick surfaces, a light sanding might be necessary.
Apply thin, even coats. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure adequate lighting to see your strokes. Try using a high-quality synthetic brush or a microfibre roller.
Colour can vary based on lighting conditions and the number of coats applied. Ensure two full coats have been applied and view the painted area in natural light.
Ensure the paint has been allowed to cure fully for at least 7 days. For fresh marks, use a damp cloth. For stubborn stains on cured paint, use a mild detergent and a soft brush, rinsing thoroughly.
Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or flaking paint. Minor preparation is needed as the paint is self-priming. For previously painted surfaces, a light sanding may be beneficial.
Application: Stir paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a brush or roller. Two coats are recommended for best results. Allow adequate drying time between coats, typically 1-2 hours, and ensure the paint is fully cured (usually 7 days) before heavy cleaning.
Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls and ceilings. Also recommended for wooden furniture, interior woodwork, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, and interior uPVC. Avoid application in shower/bath surrounds or areas with constant high moisture.
Care: Once fully cured, the paint is completely scrubbable (ISO11998 Class 1 Wet Scrub rating). Clean spills and marks promptly with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent solution and a soft brush, then rinse with clean water.
