Wooden kitchen - paint with Frenchic or something else?

I know there's been a few threads on painting kitchen cupboards but I can't find many that mention Frenchic. I have a friend that raves about it & they have lots of good feedback on their Facebook page.
Just wondered if anyone had used this on wooden units? If so how durable has it been?
Anyone who haspainted a wooden kitchen a while ago that's lasted well able to tell me what they used? Thanks!

I used Annie Sloan chalk paint plus a couple of coats of wax on my old kitchen 5 years ago and I can’t fault how it’s held up. I’ve used Frenchic Alfresco on the wooden shelving/boxing in in the bathroom and that seems to be holding up really well too. If I was to paint a kitchen again, I’d go for the Frenchic I think as it’s easier due to not having to wax.

I used Frenchic to paint my kitchen cupboards and it is great - a little goes a long way, it’s self-levelling (no brush strokes), and has a fab range of colours. For a kitchen you should use their Alfresco range which is designed for outdoors, but using this indoors means that water contact with wiping etc means it’s more durable.

Check out the Frenchic Fan Forum on Facebook for ideas for how you can use this fantastic paint - I’m a convert and want to paint anything and everything! You can also search by kitchens on the page so you can get an idea of what people have been doing.
