Product Information

Full details

The Frenchic Posh Nelly Wall Paint is ideal for homeowners seeking a sophisticated, stony grey neutral for interior walls and ceilings. Its key benefit is an ultra-matte, highly durable, and scrubbable finish with excellent coverage, minimizing prep work thanks to its self-priming and self-sealing properties. A potential caveat is that while suitable for many interior surfaces, it is best avoided in very wet areas like shower surrounds.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before application. Remove any loose or flaking paint.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Apply paint evenly with consistent brush strokes or roller application. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure adequate lighting to see coverage as you apply.

Colour appears different after drying

Colours can appear slightly different in varying light conditions. Ensure two coats have been applied for the truest representation of the shade. Allow the paint to cure fully.

Difficulty cleaning marks

Ensure the paint has been allowed to cure fully (up to 14 days). Use a damp cloth and, if necessary, a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. While self-priming, ensure any flaky or unsound surfaces are addressed. Stir paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality synthetic brush or roller.

Compatibility:

Recommended for interior walls and ceilings. Also suitable for: wooden furniture, interior wood work, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, and interior uPVC. Avoid very wet areas like showers/bath surrounds. For a matching finish on skirting boards, doors, and frames, use the Frenchic Soft-Sheen Trim Paint in the same colour.

Care:

Allow paint to cure fully (typically 7-14 days) before attempting heavy cleaning. For general maintenance, wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used. The paint achieves an ISO11998 Class 1 Wet Scrub rating once fully cured.
