Product Information

Full details

This Frenchic Wall Paint in Green is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a durable, easy-to-use, and eco-friendly paint for interior walls and ceilings, offering a beautiful ultra-matte finish. Its key benefit lies in its all-in-one formulation, eliminating the need for separate primers and top coats, saving time and effort. A potential caveat for some users might be the specific aesthetic of its nostalgic aqua tones, which may not suit all decor styles.

FAQs

Do I need a primer with this paint?

No, Frenchic Wall Paint is self-priming, meaning you do not need a separate primer coat.

Do I need a top coat?

No, the paint is also self-sealing, so a top coat is not required. It provides a durable, scrubbable finish on its own.

How long does it take to dry?

Drying times vary based on conditions, but typically it is touch-dry within 1-2 hours and recoatable after 4 hours. Full cure takes longer.

What surfaces can this paint be used on?

It's suitable for interior walls, ceilings, wood, metal, uPVC, radiators, and ceramic tiles, among other surfaces.

Is this paint safe for children's rooms?

Yes, it is EN71-3 certified, making it safe for use on children's toys and furniture. It also has low VOCs and virtually no odour.

How do I clean painted surfaces?

Once cured, the finish is highly scrubbable. Use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh abrasives.

What is the coverage of a 2.5l tin?

A 2.5l tin covers up to 35m² with one coat. For two recommended coats, expect coverage of approximately 17.5m².

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and lightly abraded if it was previously glossy. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Streaky finish

Apply paint evenly with a good quality brush or roller. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure consistent application technique.

Colour appears too light

Apply a second coat. The coverage is excellent, but two coats are recommended for full depth and durability, especially with lighter colours.

Paint seems thick or difficult to spread

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still very thick, ensure it has not been stored improperly or exposed to extreme temperatures. Check product batch for consistency.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or loose material. While the paint is self-priming, any existing glossy finishes should be lightly abraded to improve adhesion.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply with a brush or roller, working in smooth, even strokes. Two coats are recommended for best results and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer guidelines.

Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls, ceilings, wooden furniture, interior woodwork, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, interior uPVC, and ceramic wall tiles.

Care: Once fully cured, the paint is easily cleaned. Use a damp cloth with mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, especially in the initial curing period.
