FAQs
What type of adhesive should I use for installation?
A clear, natural-curing adhesive is recommended. For best results, Warren Reed suggests using their ColorSpray Splashback Adhesive and Sealant.
Can this splashback be installed over existing tiles?
Yes, provided the existing tiles are flat, firmly adhered, and the surface is thoroughly cleaned and degreased. Ensure any grout lines are not excessively deep, as this could affect adhesion.
How do I clean the glass splashback?
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild household cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.
What are the available dimensions for this splashback?
The splashback is available in several sizes including W600mm x H750mm, W700mm x H750mm, W900mm x H750mm, W600mm x H600mm, 600mm x H650mm, W700mm x H650mm, and W900mm x H650mm.
Is the printed design durable?
Yes, the high-resolution print is applied to toughened glass and is designed to be durable, scratch-resistant, and withstand heat up to 400°C.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The product comes with a 1-year guarantee.
Can I drill holes in the splashback for electrical outlets?
No, drilling through toughened glass is not recommended and can cause it to shatter. This splashback is designed for installation without drilling.
Troubleshooting
Adhesive not holding splashback securely
Ensure the wall surface was properly cleaned and dried before application. Use the recommended natural-curing adhesive and follow its curing time instructions strictly. Check that an adequate amount of adhesive was applied evenly.
Scratches appearing on the surface
Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials or sharp objects directly on the glass. Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Minor surface marks might be buffed out with a specific glass polish, but deep scratches may be permanent.
Difficulty cleaning certain marks
Use a dedicated glass cleaner for tougher residues. Ensure you are not using harsh chemicals that could damage the printed design or glass coating. Wipe clean with a soft cloth.
Splashback chipped or cracked during installation
Handle the glass with extreme care during installation, as toughened glass can still break under impact. Ensure the wall surface is flat and free from any imperfections that could stress the glass. Contact customer support if damage occurred during transit.
