We make every effort to match our online colour swatches to the paint, however, we cannot guarantee an exact colour replication as images can display differently due to screen types and device settings. ...In addition, colours can appear differently once in your home due to lighting and surroundings and can present differently depending on surface texture and porosity. There is no substitute for visiting a Stockist to see the colours yourself and or to try out the paint by purchasing a smaller 250ml ‘Dinky’ tin.

Preparation
Ensure surfaces are in suitable condition for painting and clean, dry, free from wax, grease or penetrating substances and in sound condition. If previously painted, remove loose or flaking paint. Fill any holes/imperfections with a suitable filler.
Remove any rust and apply a suitable metal primer - also apply primer to bare ferrous (iron based) metal.
Recommended surface preparation in addition to the above – clean with Frenchic Sugar Soap, rinse, dry, hand-sand sufficiently to abrade the surface and/or to smooth any protrusions after filling. Wipe off any dust.
You can watch our video on how to prepare surfaces for painting here.
Ensure the surfaces are thoroughly dry prior to painting.
To promote a smooth finish, treat porous surfaces like bare MDF, with an application of 2 coats of Frenchic Finishing Coat prior to painting.
Take care on opening the tin lid – a Frenchic tin opener is recommended.
Stir thoroughly with a wide implement, such as a Paint Paddle, prior to each use

Coverage
A 500ml tin will provide a coat of up to 7m². For a durable finish, a minimum of 2 coats is required, so your 500ml tin should provide full coverage for 3.5m² on non-porous surfaces.
Thinner application may affect durability.
Porous surfaces will affect the rate of coverage and require additional coats.
Always ensure you have enough paint for your whole project. When more than 1 tin of the same colour is needed, it is good practice to ensure batch numbers are identical or to intermix batches prior to commencing painting.
