Is this upstand waterproof?
While the laminate surface is resistant to stains and moisture, it is essential to ensure a good seal with the worktop and wall during installation to prevent water from getting behind it.

Does it come in other finishes?

Troubleshooting
Upstand does not adhere properly
Ensure the wall and worktop surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old adhesive. Use a recommended adhesive or sealant and apply evenly. Ensure sufficient pressure is applied during installation and allow adequate drying time as per adhesive instructions.
Visible seams or gaps after installation
Ensure the upstand is cut accurately and the wall surface is even. Use a high-quality sealant to fill any small gaps. For larger gaps, consider re-cutting or using a trim piece if appropriate.
Surface appears dull or has minor scratches
Minor surface dullness can often be revived with a recommended laminate cleaner or polish. For light scratches, sometimes a specialized laminate repair kit can be used, following its specific instructions.
Stains are difficult to remove
For stubborn stains, try a paste made of baking soda and water, let it sit for a few minutes, then gently wipe away. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface finish.
