Pearlas Velvet(™) is a water based suede paint crafted with high quality metallic pigments and fine resins. Pearlas Velvet(™) produces the appearance of a soft suede metallic Venetian Plaster on interior wall surfaces. Velvet’s two layer trowel application creates a silk fabric finish with a velvety texture. Its elegant color depth enables a display of two or more colors when reflected in various types of lighting.
Coverage
Quart – covers approximately 45-55 sq ft for 2 coat application.
Gallon – covers approximately 180-220 sq ft for 2 coat application.
Coverage depends on surface porosity and texture.
Application
Surface Preparation – Pearlas Velvet(™) can be applied on any interior level 5 wall. Ensuring the walls are smoothly prepared before applying Velvet will result in a refined finished texture.
Walls should be primed with the recommended primer suitable for the substrate. New drywall requires a PVA primer, while existing surfaces require a multi-purpose primer. Uneven surfaces, or surfaces with texture, should be floated for an even surface followed by the application of the recommended primer.
Pearlas Velvet™ should be applied in two thin coats using a trowel or spatula.
Variation of trowel strokes is recommended to produce a look of shimmering Venetian Plaster.
Apply the first coat and allow it to dry for at least one hour before applying the second coat. Use the trowel/spatula to apply the material in small amounts with varied movements,
and then use a clean trowel/spatula to achieve desired movement throughout the finish.
This application technique will result in rich, matted metallic reflections.
