FAQs
Can I install these panels myself?
Yes, the panels are designed for efficient installation, though we recommend having a second person to assist with handling the large panels to ensure correct alignment.
Is the finish matte or glossy?
The Tempesta finish is a sophisticated stone-effect designed to look like natural slate, offering a refined, matte-to-satin appearance.
How do I cut the panels for pipework?
Standard woodworking tools, such as a jigsaw or circular saw with a fine-tooth blade, are suitable for cutting the panels to size or creating holes for shower heads and mixers.
Do I need special tools for the installation?
You will need a spirit level, a measuring tape, a saw for sizing, and an appropriate high-tack wall panel adhesive along with silicone sealant.
What happens if the panel gets scratched?
Minor surface scratches can often be buffed out, but deeper gouges may affect the aesthetic. Always use non-abrasive cleaners to prevent long-term damage.
Troubleshooting
Panel seams are not water-tight
Ensure that a high-quality waterproof silicone sealant was applied properly to all joints during installation.
Panel appears uneven on the wall
Check the underlying wall for high spots or dips. You may need to use a shim or additional adhesive leveling to ensure the surface is perfectly flat.
Surface marks or streaks are visible
Use a microfiber cloth with water or a mild glass cleaner to buff the surface until streak-free.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Wetwall Alloy Tempesta, ensure the substrate is dry, level, and free of dust. While the product can be installed over existing tiles, verify that all existing tiles are firmly bonded to the wall. Use a high-quality silicone sealant at all joints and corners to maintain complete water resistance. For daily care, simply wipe down the panels with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Avoid harsh chemicals or scouring pads, as these can scratch the finish and compromise the visual quality of the stone-effect pattern.
