FAQs

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?

While the paint is scrubbable, it's not recommended for very wet areas like shower or bath surrounds. It can be used on bathroom walls and ceilings in well-ventilated bathrooms, but ensure adequate drying time between coats.

How many coats of Frenchic Victory Lane are recommended?

For optimal color depth and durability, two coats are recommended. The paint offers excellent coverage, so fewer coats may suffice depending on the surface and desired finish.

What is the coverage rate of this paint?

A 2.5L tin will cover up to 35m² with a single coat. With two coats recommended, you can expect coverage of approximately 17.5m² per 2.5L tin.

Can I use this paint on furniture?

Yes, Frenchic Victory Lane is suitable for painting wooden furniture, kitchen cupboards, and other interior wood surfaces.

What makes this paint 'self-priming' and 'self-sealing'?

These features mean the paint contains properties that allow it to adhere directly to most surfaces without a separate primer and provides a durable finish without the need for a separate topcoat, simplifying the painting process.

Is the paint safe for children's rooms?

Yes, the paint is EN71-3 certified, meaning it is safe for use on children's toys and in environments frequented by children.

How should I clean the painted surface?

The paint has a Class 1 Wet Scrub rating, making it easy to clean. Use a damp cloth for general marks and a mild soap solution for tougher stains. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well to a surface.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any contaminants like grease or dust. For materials like tiles or metal, perform a test patch first to confirm adhesion.

Visible brush marks or uneven finish.

Apply the paint in thin, even coats, maintaining a wet edge. Avoid overworking the paint. Using a high-quality brush or roller designed for matte finishes can also help.

Color appears lighter or darker than expected.

Consider the number of coats applied. Two coats are recommended for true color depth and durability. Lighting conditions in the room can also affect perceived color.

Paint feels tacky after drying.

This may indicate insufficient drying time between coats or inadequate ventilation. Ensure proper drying conditions and allow more time for curing, especially in humid environments.
