FAQs
Can I use these panels inside a shower enclosure?
Yes, they are fully waterproof and specifically designed for use in wet areas like shower cubicles.
Do I need special tools to install them?
No special tools are required; standard carpentry tools like a tape measure, spirit level, and a fine-tooth saw are sufficient.
How many panels are in a pack?
Each pack contains 4 panels, which provides a total coverage area of 2.6 square metres.
Can these be installed directly onto bare brickwork?
It is recommended to have a flat, smooth surface. If installing on bare brick, you may need to install timber battens first to create a level frame.
Are these panels fire resistant?
They are designed for standard residential interior use. Always ensure they are kept away from direct high-heat sources like open flames.
Troubleshooting
Panels not clicking together flush
Check that no debris or adhesive has lodged in the tongue-and-groove channel. Ensure the panel is held perfectly vertical during insertion.
Visible gaps between panels
Verify that your starting wall is perfectly plumb. If the wall is uneven, you may need to shim the panels or trim them to compensate for the wall's slope.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the tongue-and-groove style edges. Ensure your walls are clean, dry, and flat before application. Use a high-quality panel adhesive compatible with PVC materials to bond the panels to your substrate.
For care, these panels are exceptionally low-maintenance. Simply wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth and a mild non-abrasive household cleaner. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, which could scratch the Retro Metallic finish. Regular dusting or a gentle wipe after exposure to soap or water is sufficient to keep the panels looking new.
