Product Information

Full details

This guide is for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking for a durable, easy-to-use, and aesthetically pleasing paint for interior walls and ceilings. The key benefit is its ultra-matte, washable finish that requires minimal preparation thanks to its self-priming and self-sealing properties. A potential caveat is that for optimal durability and color depth, two coats are recommended, impacting coverage per tin.

FAQs

Do I really need a primer with this paint?

No, Frenchic Lamb's Wool Wall Paint is formulated to be self-priming, meaning you can typically apply it directly to your prepared surface without a separate primer.

How many coats should I apply?

While one coat may provide coverage, two coats are recommended for the best depth of colour and maximum durability and washability.

What is the coverage rate?

A 2.5L tin covers approximately 35m² with a single coat. For two coats, expect coverage of about 17.5m² per 2.5L tin.

Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?

It is suitable for interior walls and ceilings, but it is not recommended for very wet areas such as shower enclosures or bath surrounds.

How long does it take to become fully washable?

The paint is completely scrubbable once fully cured, which typically takes about 7 days after the final coat.

Can I use this paint on radiators?

Yes, it is suitable for powder-coated radiators. Ensure the radiator is clean and dry before application.

What is the VOC content?

The paint is water-based and has virtually no odour, indicating low VOC content for a healthier indoor environment.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well or peeling

Ensure the surface was properly prepared, clean, and dry. Remove any loose or flaking paint and consider a light sanding for better grip on glossy surfaces.

Streaky or uneven finish after application

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly. Apply paint evenly, avoiding over-brushing or over-rolling. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and ensure consistent application pressure.

Difficulty cleaning marks from the surface

Confirm the paint is fully cured (at least 7 days). Use only a damp cloth with mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing pads.

Slight colour variation between coats

This is normal, especially with matte finishes. Ensure the second coat is applied evenly once the first coat is dry to achieve a uniform depth of colour.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces prep time with self-priming and self-sealing properties.
  • Highly durable and washable finish, ideal for family homes and busy areas.
  • Low VOCs and minimal odour for a healthier application experience.
  • Excellent coverage allows for efficient use of paint.
  • Versatile application extends beyond walls and ceilings to furniture and woodwork.
  • Award-winning quality recognized by the Good Housekeeping Institute and Ideal Home Awards.

Cons

  • Two coats are recommended for optimal depth and durability, effectively halving the coverage per tin for a complete job.
  • Ultra-matte finish may not be suitable for high-gloss preferences.
  • Not recommended for very wet areas like shower or bath surrounds.
  • While versatile, careful surface preparation may still be needed for certain challenging substrates.
  • Requires full curing for maximum scrubbability, meaning surfaces are not immediately fully washable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Preparation:

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, dust, and flaking paint. While the paint is self-priming, any loose or damaged existing coatings should be removed. For previously painted surfaces in good condition, a light abrasion might be beneficial for adhesion.

Application:

Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a brush or roller. For best results and a durable, uniform finish, apply two coats. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer recommendations.

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 very wet areas such as shower or bath surrounds.

Care:

Once fully cured (typically 7 days), the paint is completely scrubbable. Clean spills and marks gently with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent solution and a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could damage the matte finish.
