FAQs
Can these panels be used in a bathroom?
Yes, their moisture-resistant properties make them suitable for bathrooms, though they should not be installed in direct-water-contact areas like inside a shower enclosure.
What type of adhesive should I use?
A solvent-free construction adhesive compatible with EPS foam is recommended to ensure a strong bond without melting the foam.
Do I need special tools for installation?
No, you only need a sharp utility knife, a tape measure, a spirit level, and an adhesive applicator gun.
Can I paint these panels?
Yes, they are highly paintable. We recommend water-based acrylic or masonry paints for the best results.
Are they fire-resistant?
While the material is high-density, it is still a foam-based product; avoid installing them near open flames or extreme heat sources.
How much area does one pack cover?
Each 10-pack covers 5 square meters total.
Troubleshooting
Panel corners appearing uneven during installation
Use a sanding block to lightly trim edges for a tighter fit between tongue-and-groove or butt-joint sections.
Visible gaps between panels
Use a color-matched exterior caulk or filler to conceal seams and provide a seamless appearance.
Surface indentation after accidental impact
Fill the dent with a lightweight spackle, allow it to dry, and touch up with paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your base surface is flat and stable. Apply a compatible construction adhesive in a bead pattern on the back of each panel, pressing firmly against the wall until set. Use a level during the first row of installation to keep the slate pattern aligned. For care, keep the panels clean by wiping them gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or stiff-bristled brushes, as these can damage the texture or the finish of the EPS material. If you install them outdoors, inspect the adhesive seals annually to ensure no moisture is seeping behind the panels.
