    uses for Al Fresco paint

    Frenchic Al Fresco paint has a moisture barrier built in which makes it suitable not only for kitchens and bathrooms, but outdoor furniture and even UPVC doors and windows

    why use a Frenchic brush?

    Frenchic paint brushes are handcrafted in Italy using time honoured methods and traditions. Our traditional Oval brushes are made with a careful ratio of natural bristle to synthetic fibre and with a high density of bristles, they are made particularly for optimal chalk paint ‘pick-up’.

    good to know

    coverage

    • A 750ml tin will provide a coat of up to 12.5m². For a durable finish, a minimum of 2 coats is required, so your 750ml tin should provide full coverage for 6m² 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

    suitable for

    Multipurpose paint for interior and exterior use. Recommended for furniture and woodwork. Laminate, powder-coated radiators, metal, uPVC, ceramic wall tiles (we recommend avoiding very wet areas like showers/bath surrounds), kitchen cupboards, front doors and interior wood and concrete floors.

    technical stuff

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

    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
    • To promote a smooth finish, treat porous surfaces like bare MDF, with an application of 2 coats of Tuff Top Coat prior to painting
    • Exterior wooden surfaces in particular can retain moisture for up to 48 hours after rainfall or preparation. Ensure the surfaces are thoroughly dry 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
