The verdict
This finish is new to Velven homes. In the meantime, here’s what customers say about the same film in other finishes.

Start with an A4 sample in a small hidden spot. On a smooth, sound and well bonded surface, Velven should lift away cleanly; weak or loose paint may lift with any adhesive film.
Take it one section at a time: peel back a little of the liner, line up the film, then smooth from the centre out. You can reposition it while the adhesive is still lightly placed.
For edges and tight corners, gently warm the film with a hair dryer or low heat gun, press it into place, and let it cool.
Velven works best on smooth, sealed surfaces such as cabinet and drawer fronts, furniture, internal doors, wardrobe panels and shelves. If you are unsure about your surface, try an A4 sample in a hidden spot first.
Absolutely. An A4 sample lets you see the colour in your own light, feel the texture and test it on your surface before choosing a roll.
Samples ship free. Standard shipping is $14.95 for 60cm and 90cm rolls, or free on orders over $99. Tools ship from $4.95, or free over $99. Choose 120cm when fewer joins matter most. Because these rolls are oversized, they use paid oversized shipping. Express is also available.
Most applications last around five to ten years. Quieter areas, such as wardrobe doors or feature panels, tend to sit at the longer end; frequently touched drawers and doors may sit nearer the shorter end. Careful prep and firmly pressed edges will help you get the best life from it.
