This prim and proper slightly off-white is just the ticket where a softer alternative to a true white is needed. Easy on the eye and sure to be on everyone’s guest list.
As with our indoor paint, the Al Fresco Collection is EN:71-3 certified meaning safe to paint children’s toys, it has little to no odour with very low VOC content. It is hard wearing, weatherproof with a robust and chalk finish and of course, it paints like a dream!
Available in 250ml dinky tins, 750ml tin or as part of a Front Door Painting Kit or a Kitchen Door Painting Kit.
The Front Door Painting Kits includes:
- 250ml Dinky Tin of Frenchic Al Fresco Chalk and Mineral Paint
- 1 x 27mm Frenchic Oval Chalk Brush
- 1 Bottle of sugar soap
- 120 grit sandpaper
- 1 pair of disposable gloves
In each kit there will be enough paint to transform one side of a standard sized front door. The Frenchic Al Fresco range is weatherproof and washable with up to 6 years performance before the first maintenance. The paint is suitable for wooden, upvc, composite and metal (If plain/bare metal or steel you will need a coat or two of Frenchic Finishing Coat to prevent any rusting). You will also need to treat with Finishing Coat if painting untreated wood with knots to stop any bleed through.
Before starting to paint your door(s) you will need to lightly sand to key the surface then wash thoroughly with the Sugar Soap provided and wash again with clean water. Allow to dry thoroughly then start painting. Make sure each coat is completely dry before starting the next. Make sure you paint when the weather is dry and above 5 degrees, you are recommended to paint both coats on the same day.
Should you want to paint the inside of the door too, you will need to purchase an additional pot of Al Fresco paint.
The Kitchen Door Painting Kit includes:
- 750ml Pot of Frenchic Al Fresco Chalk and Mineral Paint
- 1 x 27mm Frenchic Oval Chalk Brush
- 1 packet of sugar soap powder
- 120 grit Sandpaper
- 1 pair of disposable gloves
In this kit there will be one 750ml tin of paint that should cover up to 12m2 surface area with a single coat.
This should be enough to cover approximately one side of 10 to 12 average sized kitchen doors with two coats, but we recommend that you check how much you will need in advance.
