Certain surfaces require specific preparation:
- Painted garage doors and metal garden furniture, as well as UPVC front doors; sand lightly to eliminate debris and to key the surface.
- Bare or new unpainted metal; prime with Finishing Coat to help prevent rusting.
- Untreated redwood, cedar and mahogany; prime with Finishing Coat to seal their resin-filled knots.
- Wooden furniture or fencing pre-treated with wood stain or linseed type oils needs to be Weathered prior to painting.
This hard-wearing, breathable paint, like all our Frenchic products, requires no water-dilution.

After use, clean the brushes in warm water and washing-up liquid.
Ideally, apply both coats in the same day.
Allow two to three days drying time for furniture subject to hard use and/or items that will come into direct contact with soft furnishing.
