Matt Sanded Pastel Varnish

2KNTEX™ is the sanded pastel finish developed by Molteni Vernici to create matte surfaces with a strong tactile character. Its exclusive sanded texture, combined with an opacity of approximately 15 gloss, gives the surface a refined visual depth and a pleasant tactile feel, transforming every element into a contemporary and elegant architectural detail.

Developed by the Molteni Vernici Research and Development Center, 2KNTEX™ is a 2K two-component finish made with new-generation nanoceramic resins, designed to achieve fully opaque, uniform, and highly resistant surfaces. The special formulation eliminates the need for overcoating with clear topcoats, helping to simplify the production cycle and improve industrial efficiency.

Designed for the world of interior and outdoor design, high-end furniture, luxury retail, hospitality, contract, marine, and architecture, 2KNTEX™ finds application in boutiques, flagship stores, hotels, resorts, showrooms, contemporary villas, executive offices, and exclusive residences. It is ideal for doors, decorative panels, boiserie, reception desks, counters, custom furniture, tables, seating, lighting, profiles, handles, coverings, window frames, and furnishing accessories where the tactile quality of the surface becomes an integral part of the design.

The unique sanded texture diffuses light evenly, creating an elegant and sophisticated surface that reduces reflection and enhances shapes, geometries, and details. The result is a contemporary finish capable of masking minor substrate imperfections and imparting a high perceived quality to elements.

Applicable with direct adhesion on metals and, through specific Molteni Vernici cycles, also on plastics, MDF, wood, and composite materials, 2KNTEX™ guarantees high aesthetic uniformity, perfect industrial repeatability, and maximum design freedom.

Available in the main RAL, PANTONE®, and NCS color scales, 2KNTEX™ allows for the development of customized surfaces perfectly integrated into the most complex architectural, retail, and contract projects.

2KNTEX™ can be used both indoors and outdoors through specific application cycles. Through specific Molteni Vernici systems, it offers high performance in terms of resistance to salt spray, wear, abrasion, aging, UV rays, sweat, chemical agents, detergents, and food, preserving the sanded texture and aesthetic quality of the surface over time.

With 2KNTEX™, Molteni Vernici offers architects, designers, and manufacturers a new-generation tactile finish that combines nanotechnology, contemporary elegance, and high technical performance, creating matte surfaces with a strong aesthetic impact and designed to last over time.
