FAQs

What is the main advantage of using Multipanel wall panels?

The primary advantage is their fully waterproof construction combined with an easy installation process, offering a high-end, seamless look without the drawbacks of traditional tiling, such as grout maintenance.

Can I install these panels over existing tiles?

Yes, provided the existing tiles are firmly bonded to the wall, are not cracked, and the surface is smooth and level. You may need to lightly abrade the tile surface for optimal adhesive grip.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw for cutting, a measuring tape, a level, a sealant gun, and a notched trowel or adhesive applicator for applying the specialized adhesive.

How do I clean the Graphite Elements panels?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

Are these panels suitable for a ceiling installation?

These panels are designed for wall applications. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines for any specific recommendations regarding ceiling use, as additional support structures might be required.

What is the Hydrolock system?

The Hydrolock system refers to the tongue and groove interlocking edges of the panels, designed to create a tight, secure, and watertight seal when panels are joined together.

How long will the panels last?

When installed and maintained correctly, Multipanel products are designed for long-term durability in wet environments, offering a lasting solution for bathroom transformations.

Troubleshooting

Panel not bonding securely

Ensure the wall surface is completely dry, clean, and free from dust or grease. Use the recommended adhesive and apply it evenly according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Visible seams between panels

Check that the Hydrolock tongue and groove edges are fully engaged during installation. Ensure a sufficient bead of sealant is applied to all edges and joints after fitting.

Water ingress at joints

Verify that a waterproof sealant has been correctly applied to all edges and corners. Inspect existing seals for any gaps or damage and reapply sealant as needed.

Panel surface scratched or damaged

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. For minor scratches, consult the manufacturer's recommendations for repair or refinishing. Protect panels during installation and handling.

  • Quicker and easier to install than traditional bathroom tiles.
  • Low maintenance and simple to clean.

Cons

  • Requires careful surface preparation for optimal adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the walls are clean, dry, and structurally sound. Cut panels to size using appropriate tools, taking care to account for any necessary cut-outs for fixtures. Apply a recommended waterproof adhesive evenly to the back of the panel or the wall surface. Fit the panels, ensuring the Hydrolock tongue and groove edges engage correctly. Seal all edges and joints with a suitable silicone sealant.

Compatibility: These panels are designed for interior bathroom use. They can typically be installed over existing tiles (if flat and sound), plasterboard, or a suitably prepared substrate. Ensure compatibility with your chosen adhesive and sealant.

Care: Clean the panels regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or scouring agents that could damage the surface finish. Promptly wipe away any soap scum or water residue.
