FAQs
What type of adhesive should I use?
You must use a 'Clear Natural Curing Adhesive'. Do not use silicone-based or acid-curing adhesives, as they can damage the glass or the print.
Can I cut the splashback to size?
No, this splashback is pre-cut and should not be cut. Attempting to cut toughened glass can cause it to shatter.
What are the available sizes?
This model is available in W600mm x H750mm, W700mm x H750mm, W900mm x H750mm, W600mm x H600mm, W600mm x H650mm, W700mm x H650mm, and W900mm x H650mm.
How do I clean the splashback?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive kitchen cleaner. Dry with a soft cloth to avoid water spots.
Is the splashback heat resistant?
Yes, the premium 6mm toughened glass is scratch-resistant and withstands temperatures up to 400°C, making it suitable for use behind a hob.
What is the warranty period?
The splashback comes with a 1-year guarantee.
Can I drill holes in the splashback for sockets?
No, you cannot drill or cut toughened glass. Installation involves adhering it directly to the wall.
Troubleshooting
Splashback not adhering firmly
Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, dry, free of dust/grease). Use only Clear Natural Curing Adhesive and apply it evenly. Check that the adhesive is suitable for glass and your wall type.
Adhesive showing through the glass
Use only a clear adhesive. Ensure the adhesive is applied evenly and without large blobs, which can be visible through the glass. Wipe away excess adhesive immediately.
Surface appears dull or streaky after cleaning
Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure you rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent streaks.
Scratch marks on the surface
The splashback is scratch-resistant, but very abrasive materials or sharp objects can still cause marks. Avoid using scouring pads or sharp utensils directly on the surface. Minor scratches may be difficult to remove.
