FAQs
Can these panels be installed directly over existing tiles?
Yes, as long as the existing tiles are stable, clean, and flat, you can adhere these panels directly to them.
Do I need to apply grout between the panels?
No, these panels are specifically designed to be grout-free, utilizing a seamless joining system.
Are these panels suitable for use inside a shower enclosure?
Yes, they are 100% waterproof and are designed specifically for wet zones like showers and bathrooms.
What tools are required to cut the panels?
A fine-tooth saw or a circular saw is recommended for cutting the panels to size.
Can I use these panels on the ceiling?
While intended for walls, they can be used on ceilings if installed using the appropriate ceiling cove trims and proper adhesive support.
How do I clean the panels?
Simply wipe them down with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Panel does not sit flush against the wall
Check the wall for unevenness. You may need to use a leveling compound or install battening before attaching the panels.
Visible gaps between panels
Ensure that the panels are correctly aligned with the tongue-and-groove system and that the substrate is perfectly plumb.
Difficulty cutting straight lines
Use a straight-edge guide and a fine-tooth hand saw or circular saw with a plastic-cutting blade to ensure a clean, straight edge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation involves ensuring your substrate is flat and dry. Before fixing, measure your wall height and width carefully; use a fine-tooth saw to cut panels to size. Apply a high-quality adhesive designed for PVC panels to the back of the board before pressing firmly against the wall. For corners and transitions, use the appropriate starter or corner trims to secure the edges. Maintenance is minimal: clean regularly with non-abrasive household cleaners and a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or scouring pads, as these may dull the finish over time.
