Instructions and recommendations

Take care of the package and your products even after collection

We do not compensate for freezing or frosting of the products during shipment or after delivery, for example, and we do not accept frosted or frozen product(s).

Water-based Frenchic paint is susceptible to freezing, so you should not leave paint in a cold car in freezing weather, transport or store paint outside in freezing temperatures or too cold indoors, or order paint in an outdoor vending machine. Frenchic paints are 100% water-based. It is not recommended to use frozen/frozen paint.

Test and experiment with shades before a larger project

We make every effort to ensure that the shades in the online store correspond as closely as possible to the correct shades, but the shades may vary on different devices (depending on several factors, such as screen settings). This means that we cannot guarantee that the paint will match exactly what you see on the screen. Order a color chart, a small jar of paint or visit your nearest retailer to see the colors yourself. The shade mark on the side of the paint cans does not correspond 100% to the shade of the paint for printing reasons. We recommend visiting a Frenchic dealer to view color charts and painted shade samples and try the product before a larger project. The website has several instructions and tips for choosing a shade, we always recommend trying the paint first before starting a bigger project. Read more instructions on this page.

Also, make sure you reserve enough paint for your project

Make sure you reserve enough paint to complete the project. Standard industry advice is that if you need more than one can of paint, make sure they are from the same batch (batch number) or, if that is not possible, mix the paint batches before painting to ensure a consistent end result.
Unmixed or carelessly mixed paint can produce a large shade difference compared to a carefully mixed shade.
Mixing the paint carefully (long and deep) is important for the right shade.
If spot painting is required, we recommend painting the entire area instead of a small spot painting, so that the repair work is as inconspicuous as possible.
