FAQs

Do I need a primer before using this paint?

No, Frenchic Trim Paint is self-priming, meaning it acts as both primer and paint in one.

Do I need a topcoat after painting?

No, this paint is also self-sealing and provides a robust, durable finish without the need for a separate topcoat.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

It is suitable for interior woodwork, trims, skirting, doors, radiators, metal, and furniture including laminate and previously painted items.

How much area does 500ml cover?

A 500ml tin covers up to 7m² with one coat. For a more durable finish requiring two coats, expect coverage of approximately 3.5m².

Is this paint safe for children's furniture?

Yes, the paint is EN71-3 certified, making it safe for use on children's toys and furniture.

How should I clean my painted surfaces?

Use a damp cloth for general cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.

What is the drying time?

Drying times can vary based on conditions. Allow sufficient time between coats, typically a few hours, and full curing may take several days.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and free of grease. Lightly sand glossy or very smooth surfaces before application. Make sure the paint was stirred thoroughly.

Uneven color finish

Apply paint evenly with a good quality brush or roller. Ensure consistent strokes and avoid overloading the brush. Allow adequate drying time between the recommended two coats.

Paint seems too thick

Stir the paint well. If necessary and the manufacturer permits, a very small amount of water can be added, but this may affect the finish. Ensure the paint has not been stored in extreme temperatures.

Slight tackiness after drying

This can sometimes occur in humid conditions or if not fully cured. Ensure proper ventilation during drying. The finish should harden over several days. Avoid heavy use or cleaning until fully cured.
