Troubleshooting
Panel does not adhere properly
Ensure the wall surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Re-apply adhesive and use the sticky pads to maintain pressure while the sealant cures. Check sealant expiration date.
Visible gaps at edges or joints
Ensure sufficient sealant was applied during installation. Apply a bead of appropriate silicone sealant to fill any gaps and create a watertight seal. Ensure edges are properly finished.
Scratches or marks on the acrylic surface
For minor surface scratches, a plastic polish designed for acrylic may help. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products in the future.
