This Frenchic Wall Paint in 'After Midnight' is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a durable, sophisticated finish for interior walls and ceilings. Its key benefit is the ultra-matte, scrubbable surface that requires minimal preparation due to its self-priming and self-sealing properties. A potential caveat is the need for careful application to achieve the best results with its deep color.

No, Frenchic Wall Paint is formulated to be self-priming and self-sealing, meaning you typically do not need separate primer or top coat products for walls and ceilings. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application.
A 2.5l tin will cover up to 35m² with a single coat. For best results and durability, two coats are recommended, providing coverage of approximately 17.5m².
It is suitable for kitchen cupboards and walls. For bathrooms, it can be used on walls and tiles but should be avoided in very wet areas such as shower enclosures or directly around bath surrounds due to potential moisture ingress.
The paint has an ultra-matte finish, providing a velvety, non-reflective surface. This deep finish is excellent at hiding imperfections and creating a sophisticated look.
Once fully cured, the paint is highly scrubbable. You can clean it with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.
Yes, it is EN71-3 certified, which means it is safe to use on children's toys and therefore suitable for children's rooms and furniture.
This is a water-based paint with very low VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and virtually no odour, making it a healthier choice for indoor environments.
Yes, Frenchic Wall Paint can be used on interior wooden floors. However, for very high-traffic areas or floors that experience significant wear and tear, consider using a dedicated floor paint for maximum durability.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared and is not overly porous. Stir the paint thoroughly. Apply a second coat as recommended for best coverage and depth of colour. Ensure you are using a quality brush or roller suitable for matte paints.
This may indicate insufficient drying time between coats or inadequate ventilation. Ensure proper drying conditions and allow more time for the paint to cure fully. Avoid applying in very humid or cold conditions.
Ensure the paint has been fully cured for at least 7 days before attempting deep cleaning. Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild, non-abrasive soap. Gentle scrubbing may be required for stubborn marks.
Colour can vary slightly depending on lighting conditions and the surface it's applied to. Always test a small area first. Ensure you have applied two full coats for consistent colour.
Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or flaking paint. No primer or top coat is required. For best results on previously painted surfaces, a light sanding may be beneficial. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying.
Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush or roller. Two coats are recommended for optimal coverage, depth of colour, and durability. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer instructions (typically 1-2 hours).
Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls, ceilings, wooden furniture, interior woodwork, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, and interior uPVC. It can also be used on ceramic wall tiles, but avoid application in extremely wet environments such as shower enclosures or bath surrounds.
Care: Once fully cured (allow several days), the paint is highly scrubbable. Clean spills and marks gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the ultra-matte finish.
