FAQs
Can I install these panels over old tiles?
Yes, provided the old tiles are sound, secure, and clean. You can bond the panels directly over them.
Are these panels fire-resistant?
These panels are manufactured to be safe for indoor use, but please consult the manufacturer's technical sheet for specific fire rating information if required for building code compliance.
Do I need to grout these panels?
No, these panels are designed to be grout-free. You should use matching PVC or aluminum trims and silicone sealant at the joints.
What tools are required for installation?
You will need a tape measure, a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw, a spirit level, construction adhesive, and a silicone sealant gun.
Can the panels be used in a steam room?
While highly moisture-resistant, they are intended for standard bathroom environments. Check local building regulations for high-temperature wet areas.
Troubleshooting
Panel appears uneven after installation
Ensure the underlying wall surface is plumb and level before application; shim the surface if necessary.
Water leaking at the edge
Check the bead of silicone sealant; re-apply or increase the amount of sealant in the corner trim or finishing edge.
Difficulty cutting the panel
Use a fine-toothed blade to prevent the gloss layer from chipping; ensure the panel is well-supported during the cut.
Pros and Cons

- No grout maintenance required
- Easy to clean surface

Cons
- Requires specialized trim for corners and edges

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your existing walls are clean, dry, and relatively flat. The panels can be cut to size using a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw to accommodate pipes or fixtures. It is critical to use the correct compatible starter, corner, and finishing trims to ensure the edges are sealed and protected.
Care Instructions
- Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth with mild soap and water to clean the surface.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or scouring pads, which can scratch the gloss finish.
- Inspect the silicone seals periodically to ensure there are no gaps where water could ingress behind the panels.
