FAQs

Can I install these panels over existing tiles?

Yes, you can typically install these panels over existing tiles provided the tile surface is smooth, clean, dry, and well-adhered. Ensure your chosen adhesive is suitable for application over tiles.

Are these panels suitable for a shower enclosure?

Yes, these panels are designed for use in bathrooms and wet rooms, including shower enclosures, due to their water-resistant properties. Ensure all joints are properly sealed.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw for cutting, a measuring tape, a spirit level, a suitable adhesive, a sealant gun, and a caulking tool. A rubber mallet may also be useful.

How do I cut the panels for corners or pipes?

Measure carefully and mark your cutting line. Use a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw for straight cuts and curved cuts. For pipe cutouts, a jigsaw or a hole saw attachment can be used. Always allow for expansion gaps where necessary.

How do I clean the steel blue finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the surface.

What is the difference between this and a tile?

These panels offer a seamless, grout-free finish, making them faster to install and easier to clean than traditional tiles. The herringbone pattern provides a distinct visual design.

Can I paint over this panel?

These panels are designed with a specific finish and are not intended to be painted. Painting may affect their water resistance and durability. Consult the manufacturer for specific advice if considering painting.

Troubleshooting

Panels not locking together securely

Check for any debris or damage along the locking edges. Ensure panels are aligned correctly before attempting to lock them. Use a rubber mallet gently if needed.

Adhesive not holding panels firmly

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use the recommended type and amount of adhesive as per the manufacturer's instructions. Allow adequate curing time.

Scratches or damage to the surface finish

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. For minor scratches, touch-up paint in a similar shade may be used cautiously. For significant damage, panel replacement might be necessary.

Water ingress at joints

Ensure all edges and joints are properly sealed with appropriate bathroom-grade sealant. Reapply sealant if it appears to be damaged or failing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and structurally sound before installation. Cut panels using a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw for precision. Apply appropriate adhesive suitable for wall panels and your wall substrate, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Engage the tongue-and-groove system to connect panels firmly. Seal all edges and joints with a suitable sealant designed for wet areas to prevent water penetration.

Compatibility: These panels are designed for interior use in bathrooms and wet rooms. They are compatible with most standard wall substrates, including plasterboard and existing tile surfaces (ensure adhesion is suitable). Ensure compatibility with any required trims or corner pieces for a finished look.

Care: Clean the panels regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the surface finish. Wipe away any soap or water residue promptly to maintain the panel's appearance and longevity.
