FAQs
Can I use this in a bathroom?
While the MDF is moisture-resistant, it is not waterproof. It should not be used in high-splash areas or damp, poorly ventilated rooms.
Do I need to prime the boards before painting?
No, the boards come pre-primed, but a light sanding is recommended before applying your final top coat.
What is the length of each board?
Each board is approximately 3.04 meters long.
Can these boards be cut with a standard hand saw?
Yes, they can be cut with a standard hand saw or a power miter saw for cleaner, faster results.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need a saw, adhesive or nails, a hammer or nail gun, a tape measure, and wood filler.
Troubleshooting
Board is warping or bowing
Ensure the wall surface is level; if the wall is uneven, use shims before fixing the board to prevent tension.
Visible gaps between joints
Use a professional-grade decorator's caulk or wood filler to bridge gaps, then paint over for a seamless look.
Paint is not adhering well to the primer
Lightly sand the primed surface with fine-grit sandpaper before painting to improve mechanical adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and flat. The boards can be fixed using high-quality adhesive or by pinning them into the wall studs or masonry. When cutting the 3.04m lengths, always use a sharp blade to minimize chipping on the primed surface. After installation, fill any nail holes with high-quality wood filler, sand lightly, and apply your chosen top coat—either satin, gloss, or eggshell paint. To clean, wipe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid soaking the boards, as excessive moisture can eventually penetrate even moisture-resistant materials.
