Troubleshooting
Splashback is not adhering to the wall
Ensure the wall surface was thoroughly cleaned, dried, and free of dust or grease before application. Verify that the correct type and amount of adhesive were used according to instructions. Allow adequate curing time for the adhesive.
Visible adhesive marks or streaks
Use only a small amount of adhesive and spread it evenly. If marks appear, try to wipe them away gently with a damp cloth immediately after application. For cured marks, consult the adhesive manufacturer's recommendations for removal.
Surface appears dull or streaky after cleaning
Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth to prevent water spots and streaks. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Chipped or damaged edge during installation
Handle the glass with extreme care. If chipped, do not attempt to install as it could be a safety hazard. Contact customer support for potential replacement options.
