Product Information

Full details

The Lite Stone Burning Forest Slate Veneer is an ideal solution for interior designers and DIY enthusiasts seeking the luxury of 100% natural stone without the weight or installation difficulty of traditional masonry. This striking material, defined by its dark green base and vibrant brown and red veining, provides a high-shine, textured finish suitable for walls, furniture, and wet areas like showers. While it offers unmatched versatility and a lightweight profile, users should note that as a natural stone product, individual sheets may exhibit unique color variations that require careful planning during installation.

FAQs

Can I install this on a curved wall?

Yes, the fiberglass and resin backing allows the veneer to be gently curved to accommodate slight radii on walls or furniture.

Is it safe to use in a shower?

Yes, provided the sheets are sealed correctly at all joints and edges to prevent moisture from reaching the substrate.

Does the stone change color over time?

As with any natural stone, extreme and direct sunlight may cause minor fading over many years, which is why we recommend UV-resistant sealers for outdoor use.

Can I use standard wood glue for installation?

No, you must use a construction-grade adhesive specifically designed for stone veneers to ensure long-term adhesion.

How do I clean the veneer?

A soft cloth with warm water is sufficient for daily cleaning. For tougher stains, use a mild, pH-neutral stone cleaner.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a measuring tape, a diamond-blade angle grinder or tile saw, adhesive, a notched trowel, and a level.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty in cutting a straight edge

Use a straight-edge guide and a diamond-blade angle grinder for a clean, professional cut.

Sheet lifting at the edges

Ensure the substrate was fully cleaned of dust and oils; apply additional adhesive and use temporary clamps to hold the sheet in place while the bond sets.

Visible seams

Use a color-matched epoxy or stone-grade silicone grout to bridge the gaps between sheets for a unified look.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lighter than traditional stone slabs
  • Easy to cut and install on various surfaces
  • High-end aesthetic with natural variations
  • Suitable for high-moisture environments like showers
  • Excellent for both flat and slightly curved surfaces

Cons

  • Color and veining patterns vary between individual sheets
  • Requires proper sealing for long-term outdoor exposure
  • Cutting requires specialized tools for clean edges
  • Professional-grade adhesive required for vertical installations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a clean, dry, and level substrate. For most vertical applications, a high-quality polymer-modified adhesive is recommended to ensure the flexible backing bonds securely. Always measure your area twice and plan your seam placement to ensure the natural veining flows consistently across the surface.

Cutting: Use a diamond-tipped blade or a heavy-duty scoring tool for the best results.

Compatibility: This product is compatible with drywall, wood, cement board, and metal surfaces.

Care: To maintain the high-shine finish, wipe the surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Use a pH-neutral stone cleaner for deep cleans. If installed in an outdoor or high-traffic area, apply a stone-specific penetrating sealer every 1-2 years to maintain the vibrancy of the brown and red veins.
