Product Information

Full details

This Frenchic Trim Paint in Yellow is designed for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to refresh interior woodwork, furniture, and radiators with a cheerful, satin finish. Its key benefit is the all-in-one formulation, acting as a self-priming and self-sealing paint that simplifies the prep process. A potential caveat is that the recommended two coats may require more paint than initially estimated for larger projects.

How much area does a 500ml tin cover?

Is this paint suitable for children's furniture?

Can I use this paint on metal radiators?

Yes, it is suitable for use on powder-coated radiators.

What is the sheen level of this paint?

Can this paint be used outdoors?

No, this paint is specifically designed for interior use only.

How do I clean painted surfaces?

Clean painted surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or clumpy

Stir the paint thoroughly. If still too thick, a very small amount of water can be added, but use sparingly to avoid compromising the finish.

Poor adhesion or peeling

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and properly prepared. Glossy surfaces may need more thorough abrasion before painting.

Uneven finish or brush marks visible

Apply paint in thin, even coats. Use a good quality brush and maintain a wet edge. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Color appears different in different lighting

This is common with paint colors. Test a painted swatch in the intended location under various lighting conditions before committing to the entire project.
