Velvetina | Natural Materials

In the tradition of quality European lime plasters, Rockcote Velvetina is a strong, fine grained decorative plaster finish with a distinctive velvety appearance. 

With less drama than Venetian Plaster, and harder drying characteristics than Otsumigaki, Velvetina is designed to produce a low lustre finish with a serene, natural look. It is particularly useful for finishes where a combination of lightly polished closed and coarser open areas is sought such as a bamboo effect finish. 

Velvetina’s velvety allure works effortlessly in offices, reception areas, large feature walls in restaurants and homes, and bar faces.

Rockcote Velvetina can be used as a two coat finishing system for interiors, delivering a smooth to low lustre finish. For best results, apply the first and second coats with a Venetian Trowel allowing 12 hours between coats and then polish using a Japanese Namikeshi stainless steel trowel. Flat patterns can also be achieved by the creative artisan.

This product cannot be used to achieve a high polished finish; if a super-high polished finish is sought, Rockcote Venetian Plaster should be used.

  • Can be used as a base coat for Rockcote Venetian Plaster.
  • Can also be used as a finish coat to create a smooth to lustre finish.
  • A variety of patterns can be created depending on the skill of the applicator.
  • Zero VOC.

Benefits:

  • Intended as a base coat layer to address substrate imperfections, particularly over plasterboard or fibre cement sheet, in preparation for over coating with Venetian Plaster.
