Troubleshooting
Splashback appears warped or uneven
Ensure the wall surface is flat and smooth before installation. If warping occurs after installation, it may be due to uneven adhesive application or significant temperature fluctuations. Check adhesive type and application.
Adhesive is not bonding properly
Verify the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use an adhesive specifically rated for splashbacks and the intended substrate. Ensure adequate pressure is applied during installation.
Scratches appear on the surface
While scratch-resistant, very sharp or abrasive objects can cause marks. For minor scratches, sometimes a specialized metal polish or automotive swirl remover can help, but always test in an inconspicuous area first. Use appropriate cleaning tools (soft cloths).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation typically involves adhering the splashback directly to the wall using a suitable adhesive recommended for kitchen environments, or mechanical fixings depending on wall type and desired finish. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth before application. Precise cutting may be required for an exact fit, which should be done with appropriate tools for metal or composite panels.
Compatibility: This splashback is designed for use behind most standard kitchen hobs (electric, induction, gas) and in utility areas. Always consult your hob manufacturer's guidelines regarding clearance requirements from heat sources.
Care: Cleaning is straightforward. Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent or an all-purpose cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch or damage the surface. Wipe away spills and splatters promptly to maintain its pristine appearance.
