About Renuva

Renuva Architectural Film is a self-adhesive interior finish that applies directly over existing cabinetry, doors, furniture, built-ins and wall panels, so a space can be renewed without demolition, replacement or repainting. The range is an edited 27 finishes across eight series, each with a scratch- and abrasion-resistant wear layer, a water-based adhesive backing and a 5-year warranty. Rolls are 48 in (122 cm) wide in 16.4 ft, 32.8 ft, 82 ft and 164 ft lengths, samples are 8 in x 10 in, and everything is stocked in the US and ships from Surface Supply in 1 to 3 days. Every finish is ASTM E84 fire rated for US interior use: Class A across the range, with the High Gloss Solid series at Class B.

Finishes by series

Every Renuva finish code starts with its series prefix. Use the series collections to browse by look, or open the full collection to see all 27 side by side.

Installation

Renuva applies dry with a squeegee on flat and gently contoured interior surfaces, using the same tools and technique as other architectural films. Surface preparation decides the result: the substrate must be clean, degreased, dry, sound and non-porous or sealed, and every job should start with an adhesion test. These guides cover the process from tools to troubleshooting.

Professional installers can apply for installer pricing; design firms, contractors and fabricators can apply for trade pricing.

Fire rating

Renuva is tested to ASTM E84, the surface-burning test US code officials use to accept interior finishes, by an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited laboratory. The result is Class A, with a flame spread index of 25 and a smoke developed index of 15. The High Gloss Solid series (HG1630, HG1632, HG1634) is rated Class B. ASTM E84 rates surface-burning characteristics only. It does not make a material noncombustible, and the classification applies to the film, not to the substrate beneath it.

Samples and swatch book

Always confirm a finish with a physical sample. Screens cannot show embossed grain, linen weave or the difference between a smooth and a textured matte, and color can vary slightly between print lots and between samples and production rolls. Every product page has an 8 in x 10 in Sample option, and the swatch book puts all 27 finishes in one fan-style deck with the finish code printed on each swatch. Samples are final sale. The swatch book can be returned within 30 days of receipt if it comes back in original, resalable condition, with every swatch attached and unmarked.

FAQ

Answers on product basics, the eight series, suitable surfaces, installation, cleaning, the 5-year warranty, samples, Quick-Ship rolls, returns and how Renuva compares with Bodaq and 3M DI-NOC.

Compare

Surface Supply carries three architectural film brands. Renuva is the stocked, cost-effective choice for interior cabinet, door and furniture refacing. When a specification calls for exterior use or a pattern outside Renuva's 27 finishes, Bodaq (468 patterns, every interior finish tested to ASTM E84 Class A) and 3M DI-NOC (over 1,000 patterns, exterior and abrasion-resistant series) fill the gap. These pages explain the differences.
