Coverage

Coverage

A 2.5l tin will provide a coat of up to 35m². For a durable finish, 2 coats are required, so your 2.5l tin should provide full coverage for approximately 17.5m² 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

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 prep surfaces for painting here.
Ensure the surfaces are thoroughly dry prior to painting
For new plaster, industry standard advice is to apply an initial mist coat - in which case you can thin Frenchic wall paint with tap water up to a maximum of 10%
To promote a smooth finish, treat porous wood 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. Also suitable for spraying - thin with up to 15% tap water and apply additional coat(s)
Allow a minimum of 2 hours between coats (even if the paint feels touch dry)
Curing time is up to 2-3 weeks in normal conditions. Treat the newly painted surface with care until then
For floors, to avoid damaging the finish, do not walk on the area for 4 hours after painting and then with socks for the next 7 days. Also, try to keep pet paw claws off as well during this period. Do not allow the surface to become wet for at least a week. Continue to treat with care for up to 3 weeks
Painted floors may require maintenance

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
