Troubleshooting
Splashback not adhering to the wall
Ensure the wall surface was clean, dry, and smooth before application. Verify that the correct 'Clear Natural Curing Adhesive' was used and applied according to instructions. Allow adequate curing time.
Visible scratches on the surface
While scratch-resistant, forceful abrasion with sharp objects can still cause marks. Clean gently with a soft cloth and mild cleaner. For minor surface marks, try a glass polish designed for such applications, following product instructions carefully.
Adhesive residue visible around edges
Clean carefully with a soft cloth and a small amount of adhesive remover recommended for glass, ensuring not to spread residue. If the adhesive has fully cured, it may require professional removal.
Uneven finish or bubbles behind the glass
This typically indicates an issue during adhesive application. Ensure the adhesive was spread evenly and the splashback was pressed firmly. If bubbles are minor and not aesthetically disruptive, they may be left; otherwise, re-installation might be necessary.
