FAQs

How much area does one pot cover?

Each 75g pot provides coverage for approximately 3m².

Can I use this on outdoor furniture?

While Frensheen Gold can be used on outdoor furniture, we recommend sealing with a suitable outdoor topcoat to protect against the elements.

What is the best way to apply this product?

The best method depends on your project. You can mix it with a medium and apply with a brush, sponge, or other applicator. Experiment to see what yields the best results.

Can I mix this with other paint brands?

We recommend using Frensheen Gold with Frenchic products for best results. However, it can be experimented with other brands.

How do I clean my application tools?

Clean your tools immediately after use, following the recommendations of the medium you mixed with. Water-based mediums can be cleaned with water and soap.

What kind of topcoat should I use?

For added durability, we recommend using a clear topcoat like Frenchic Finishing Coat or Tuff Top Coat. Consider the project's use when selecting the topcoat.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish after application.

Ensure thorough mixing of the powder and medium. Apply in thin, even coats, and allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next. Consider sanding lightly between coats.

Not enough metallic sheen.

Use a higher concentration of Frensheen Gold in the mixture, or apply multiple coats. Ensure proper mixing and application techniques.

Product is clumping.

Ensure that the Frensheen is properly mixed with the chosen medium. Avoid adding too much powder at once. If it's already clumped, try breaking it up carefully.
