  • Water-based, low VOCs and low odour

Suitable for

Recommended for decorative effects for interior wooden furniture. Also suitable for most wooden surfaces, laminate and metal.

The Technical Stuff

  • Safe for use on children's toys - EN71-3 certified
  • Contains: Chalk, Clay, Titanium Dioxide, Resin, Talcum, Preservative

Coverage

A 750ml tin will cover up to 8m2 with a single coat. Original Artisan is perfect for creating decorative effects, adding texture and creating a distressed look with multiple colours and layers.

Coverage

Coverage

  • A 750ml tin will provide a coat of up to 8m². Full visual coverage may require more than 1 coat, depending on the desired effect
  • 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

How to use

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

Application, drying and curing (hardening)

  • Apply with a good quality brush or roller
  • To allow self-levelling, avoid overworking the paint
  • Allow a minimum of 1 hour between coats (even if the paint feels touch dry)
  • You may prefer to sand between coats, depending on the desired effect
  • Seal with your choice of Frenchic sealant
  • Curing time is up to 2-3 weeks in normal conditions. Treat the newly painted surface with care until then

Clean up and storage

  • Reseal tin after use
  • Clean up any spills immediately with water
  • Wash brushes/rollers in warm, soapy water
  • Do not store where the tin could be subjected to damp, frost, freezing or high temperatures
