FAQs
Do I need a primer or top coat with this paint?
No, Frenchic Wall Paint is self-priming and self-sealing, meaning you do not need a separate primer or top coat.
How many coats of paint are recommended?
While one coat offers coverage, two coats are recommended for optimal colour depth and durability.
What is the coverage of a 2.5l tin?
A 2.5l tin covers up to 35m² with a single coat. Two coats will cover approximately 17.5m².
Can I use this paint in a bathroom?
It can be used on ceramic wall tiles in bathrooms, but it is not suitable for areas with very high humidity or direct water contact, such as shower enclosures or around bath surrounds.
How do I clean the painted surface?
Once fully cured, the paint is completely scrubbable. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild detergent sparingly.
Is this paint safe for children's rooms and toys?
Yes, the paint is EN71-3 certified, making it safe for use on children's toys and in environments frequented by children.
What kind of finish does this paint have?
It provides an ultra-matte finish, which is non-reflective and sophisticated.
Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, free from contaminants) and that any previously glossy surfaces were lightly sanded.
Streaky or uneven finish
Ensure paint is stirred well before and during application. Use consistent brush strokes or roller technique. Apply thin, even coats rather than overloading the brush/roller.
Color does not match expectations
Paint colours can appear differently under various lighting conditions. Always test a small area first. Ensure sufficient coats have been applied as per recommendations for colour depth.
Paint is too thick to apply smoothly
Stir the paint thoroughly. If the environment is very cold, allow the paint to come to room temperature before use.
