Frenchic Trim Paint in 'Apple of my Eye' is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to refresh interior woodwork, furniture, and radiators with a clean, crisp, and cheerful green finish. Its key benefit is the all-in-one functionality, acting as a self-priming and self-sealing paint that offers a robust, scuff-resistant, soft-satin sheen with minimal preparation. A potential caveat is that while it covers well, two coats are recommended for optimal durability, impacting the overall project time and paint quantity needed for larger areas.

No, Frenchic Trim Paint is designed to be self-priming and self-sealing, meaning you can apply it directly to prepared surfaces without the need for separate primer or top coat.
It's ideal for interior woodwork, trims, skirting, doors, radiators, metal, and furniture (including laminate and kitchen cupboards). It is also certified safe for children's toys.
A 500ml tin will cover approximately 7m² with a single coat. For a more durable finish requiring two coats, coverage is around 3.5m².
This paint provides a soft-satin sheen, offering a subtle and smooth finish.
No, this is specifically formulated for interior use. For outdoor projects, Frenchic offers the Al Fresco range.
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.
Drying times can vary based on conditions, but it is typically touch-dry within 1-2 hours. Allow 7-14 days for full curing.
Ensure the paint is well-stirred before use. Apply thin, even coats. Use a good quality brush or roller suitable for water-based paints. Avoid overworking the paint.
Surface may not have been adequately cleaned or prepared. Ensure the surface is free from dust, grease, and moisture. Lightly sand any glossy surfaces before application.
Check ambient temperature and humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid applying in very cold or damp conditions. Multiple thick coats can also hinder drying.
Ensure two coats have been applied and allowed to cure fully (up to 14 days). For high-traffic areas, consider an additional clear sealant designed for furniture if extreme durability is needed, though the paint itself is designed to be scuff-resistant.
Setup:
Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. No primer or topcoat is required thanks to the paint's self-priming and self-sealing properties.
Compatibility:
This paint is recommended for interior woodwork, trims, skirting, and doors. It is also suitable for powder-coated radiators, metal, and various furniture types, including kitchen cupboards and built-in furniture made from wood or laminate. It is safe for use on children's toys (EN71-3 certified).
Care:
Allow the paint to cure fully before subjecting it to heavy use, typically 7-14 days. For routine cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild detergent can be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
