FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

You must use 'Clear Natural Curing Adhesive' specifically designed for glass splashbacks. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

Can I install this myself?

While possible, professional installation is highly recommended due to the weight and fragility of glass, and the specific adhesive required. Incorrect installation can lead to damage or safety hazards.

How do I clean the splashback?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth using a mild, non-abrasive cleaner or glass cleaner. Dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive materials.

Is the design durable?

Yes, the artwork is integrated into the glass during manufacturing and is designed to be durable and resistant to fading with proper care.

What sizes are available?

The splashback is available in several sizes, including W600mm x H750mm, W700mm x H750mm, W900mm x H750mm, W600mm x H600mm, W600mm x H650mm, W700mm x H650mm, and W900mm x H650mm.

Can this be used behind a gas hob?

Yes, it can be used behind gas hobs, but ensure there is adequate ventilation as per your hob's manufacturer instructions and local building regulations.

What is the thickness of the glass?

The splashback is made from 6mm toughened glass.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive not curing properly

Ensure you are using the recommended 'Clear Natural Curing Adhesive' and that surfaces are completely dry and free from dust or grease. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions precisely regarding application temperature and curing times.

Glass appears smudged or streaky after cleaning

Use a high-quality glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Avoid over-application of cleaner. Wipe in one direction (e.g., horizontally) and then dry with a clean, dry microfiber cloth, wiping in the perpendicular direction (e.g., vertically).

Minor scratches on the surface

The toughened glass is durable, but deep scratches cannot be removed. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools. For very minor surface scuffs, professional glass polishing might be an option, but this is not typically recommended for decorative splashbacks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation:

This splashback requires careful installation. It is crucial to use Clear Natural Curing Adhesive specifically designed for glass splashbacks. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth before application. Due to the nature of the material and the adhesive, professional installation by a qualified fitter is highly recommended to ensure safety and a perfect finish. Measure your space accurately to select the correct size.

Compatibility:

The splashback is designed for use behind most standard kitchen cooktops (gas and electric) and sink areas. It is compatible with most wall types when properly prepared and adhered to. Always ensure there is adequate ventilation, especially behind gas cooktops, as per local building regulations.

Care:

Cleaning is straightforward. Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution or glass cleaner. Avoid using scouring pads, harsh chemicals, or abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the glass surface or damage the printed design. Wipe dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, a gentle solution of warm water and a drop of dish soap can be effective.
