Product Information

Full details

This Frenchic Vintage Rosie Wall Paint in 2.5L is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a sophisticated, durable finish for interior walls and ceilings. Its key benefit is its all-in-one formulation, acting as self-priming and self-sealing, which significantly reduces preparation time and the need for multiple products. A potential caveat is its ultra-matte finish, which may show more imperfections than higher sheens if the surface is not properly prepared. This water-based paint offers excellent coverage and is washable, making it a practical choice for busy households.

FAQs

How many coats of Frenchic Vintage Rosie paint are recommended?

For best results, two coats are recommended to achieve depth of colour and a durable finish. One coat provides coverage of up to 35m², so expect approximately 17.5m² coverage for two coats.

Is this paint suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

It is suitable for kitchen cupboards and can be used on interior walls and ceilings. However, it is not recommended for very wet areas like shower enclosures or bath surrounds due to its ultra-matte finish.

How do I clean the painted surface?

Once cured, the paint is completely scrubbable. Clean marks and spills with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Do I need to use a primer with this paint?

No, Frenchic Vintage Rosie Wall Paint is self-priming, meaning no separate primer is required for most suitable surfaces.

What is the finish of this paint?

The paint has an ultra-matte finish, offering a sophisticated, non-reflective look.

Is this paint safe for children's rooms?

Yes, it is certified for use on children's toys (EN71-3), making it a safe choice for nurseries and playrooms.

Can I match this paint to my trim work?

Yes, Frenchic offers a matching soft-satin Trim Paint range in the same shades, allowing you to coordinate walls with skirting boards, doors, and frames.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well or is peeling

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and dry before application. Remove any loose paint and reapply, ensuring all previous finishes (like waxes or oils) were removed or adequately primed for if necessary.

Uneven colour or finish after application

Ensure the paint was stirred thoroughly before and during use. Apply paint evenly, avoiding overworking. Ensure consistent application technique between coats. Check that the surface is not porous or uneven, which can absorb paint differently.

Brush or roller marks are visible

Use a high-quality brush or roller designed for matte finishes. Apply paint in a consistent direction, cutting in edges carefully. Avoid applying too thickly, and ensure even coverage.

Paint coverage seems poor

While coverage is excellent, achieving full opacity often requires two coats. Ensure you are applying an even layer and not spreading the paint too thinly. Darker colours may require more coats over very contrasting undercoats.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material. Minor repairs may be needed for significant imperfections.
Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use.
Apply with a good quality brush or roller.
Apply a second coat for best results, allowing adequate drying time between coats.

Compatibility:

Recommended Surfaces: Interior walls and ceilings, wooden furniture, interior woodwork, wooden floors, kitchen cupboards, metal, powder-coated radiators, interior uPVC, and ceramic wall tiles.
Surfaces to Avoid: Very wet areas such as shower enclosures or bath surrounds. Not recommended for exterior use.

Care:

Allow the paint to cure fully (typically 7-14 days) for maximum durability and scrubbability.
Clean spills and marks promptly using a damp cloth. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used. Gently scrub if necessary, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could damage the matte finish.
