FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

You should use a low-expansion foam adhesive specifically designed for EPS, XPS, PIR, or phenolic foam materials. Always check the panel manufacturer's recommendations and the adhesive manufacturer's guidelines.

Can these panels be used in a bathroom or kitchen?

Yes, they are moisture and heat-resistant, making them suitable for bathrooms and kitchens. However, for areas with direct and prolonged water exposure, ensure they are properly sealed and maintained.

How many panels are in a pack and what is the coverage?

Each pack contains 10 panels, with each panel measuring 100cm x 50cm, providing a total coverage of 5 square meters (5m²).

Can I paint over the panels?

Yes, the acrylic coating is paintable. It's recommended to use a primer suitable for foam or acrylic surfaces and then apply your chosen paint in thin, even coats.

Are these panels waterproof?

The panels are moisture-resistant. For outdoor use or in very wet environments, applying a weather-resistant varnish is recommended for added durability and protection against water ingress.

How do I clean the panels?

Simply wipe the panels with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the surface.

Can I install these panels on an uneven wall?

For best results, the wall surface should be relatively smooth and flat. Minor imperfections can sometimes be accommodated by the adhesive, but significant unevenness may affect adhesion and the final appearance.

What is the difference between the effects (wood, slate, brick)?

The difference lies in the molded texture and finish. Each effect is designed to realistically mimic the appearance of natural wood cladding, slate stone, or brickwork, providing distinct aesthetic styles.

Troubleshooting

Panels not adhering well

Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and free of dust). Use the correct type of low-expansion foam adhesive recommended for EPS/XPS materials. Ensure adequate adhesive coverage and firm pressure during installation.

Difficulty cutting panels precisely

Use a sharp, high-quality utility knife or a fine-toothed saw. Score the panel multiple times for cleaner cuts. Consider using a straight edge or guide for accuracy. Practice on a scrap piece first.

Outdoor panels fading or warping

This indicates the need for a protective weather-resistant varnish. Reapply sealant as per the product's instructions. Ensure panels are installed on a surface that allows for drainage and air circulation if possible.

Paint not adhering evenly

Ensure the panel surface is clean and dry before painting. Use a primer suitable for foam or acrylic surfaces. Apply paint in thin, even coats. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or loose material.
  2. Measure and plan the layout of your panels.
  3. Cut panels to size using a sharp utility knife or saw if necessary. Test cuts on a spare piece first.
  4. Apply a low-expansion foam adhesive (specifically for EPS, XPS, PIR, or phenolic materials) to the back of the panel or the wall, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
  5. Press the panel firmly into place, ensuring good contact.
  6. For outdoor use, once installed and adhesive is cured, apply a weather-resistant varnish to protect against UV rays and moisture.

Compatibility:

These panels are compatible with most standard interior and exterior wall surfaces, including drywall, plaster, concrete, and wood. They can be cut to fit around outlets, windows, and doors.

Care:

Cleaning is simple: wipe the panels with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, especially on unsealed surfaces. For outdoor applications, periodic checks of the sealant are recommended.
