Key specifications

Suede‑touch, tactile, refined.

Valrenna 2 is a soft‑touch decorative system that recreates the look and feel of suede on interior walls. Curated by Italian Surface Finishes for the UK market, it answers briefs for calming, tactile spaces in boutique homes, hotels and wellness environments — where quiet luxury and comfort matter as much as durability.

Finish	Velvety, modern suede‑effect decorative coating with subtle tonality, soft hand and directional nap.
Base	Water‑borne decorative system for interiors; breathable once cured when used over appropriate primers.
Coverage (guide)	Project‑ and technique‑dependent; verify yield on a sample panel as indicated in the TDS.
Application tools	Short‑pile roller for base/uniform coats • Soft suede brush / spalter for directional suede texture • Plastic trowel (optional) for gentle levelling.
System products	Primer/fixative: Use the substrate‑appropriate primer specified in the PDF (typically Primer 400 tinted) to ensure uniform absorption. Finish: Valrenna 2 applied in 2 coats; the final pass is brushed to create the soft suede effect. Optional protection: Clear sealer (only where elevated washability is required).
Drying / recoat	Follow intervals in the TDS; avoid forced drying and high humidity during application.
Sizes	Pack sizes as per PDF specification.

*Always confirm coverage and final appearance on a sample board under project lighting.

System build

The Valrenna 2 system is based on a prepared substrate, the specified primer and two Valrenna 2 coats:

Prepare & prime — Sound, clean, dry interior plaster, drywall or masonry. Stabilise friable surfaces and prime with the specified fixative/primer (typically Primer 400, tinted) to equalise absorption before applying Valrenna 2.
First coat — Apply Valrenna 2 uniformly with a short‑pile roller or brush; let dry per TDS guidance.
Second coat & texture — Apply a thin coat and, while workable, use a soft suede brush/spalter to create the characteristic directional suede movement.
Optional protection — Apply a compatible clear sealer only in higher‑traffic areas if additional washability is required.

Professional tips

Brush in consistent, gentle strokes; keep direction flowing wall‑to‑wall.
Control room lighting while finishing — grazing light helps you read texture.
Avoid over‑working; the soft look comes from light, even passes.

Drying & curing

Respect stated intervals between coats; follow the TDS for timing at given temperature and humidity.
Full cure as indicated in the TDS before any optional sealing or intensive cleaning.

Maintenance & health / safety

Maintenance:

Dust with a soft cloth. If sealed, wipe gently with a damp cloth.
Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the suede‑like surface.

Health & safety:

Water‑borne system; ventilate during application and drying.
Wear gloves/eye protection; avoid skin and eye contact.
Store sealed between +5 °C and +30 °C.

Tailored by Italian Surface Finishes for UK interiors, Valrenna 2 delivers a tactile suede‑effect wall finish with calm elegance and practical durability. Ideal for bedrooms, lounges, boutique hotels and wellness spaces seeking quiet luxury.
