These panels are moisture-resistant but are not suitable for wet-rooms or areas with direct water contact like shower surrounds.
Since the panels come pre-primed, you can use most interior-grade latex or oil-based paints for the topcoat.
While grab adhesive is the primary method, some installers choose to add finishing nails for extra security, though this may require filling the nail holes before painting.
These panels are specifically designed for vertical orientation to achieve the traditional bead and butt look.
The vertical grooves are spaced consistently at 200mm intervals.
Yes, they can be easily cut using standard woodworking tools to fit your specific wall dimensions.
Ensure the wall surface is free of dust, grease, or peeling paint and apply adequate pressure while the adhesive cures.
Use a wood-appropriate filler to lightly bridge the seam before applying the final coat of paint for a seamless appearance.
Use a fine-toothed hand saw or a circular saw with a guide to ensure straight, clean edges when trimming the panel height or width.
For optimal results, ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and flat before installation. The panels are best secured using a high-quality grab adhesive applied to the back of the board. Ensure the panels are oriented with the grooves running vertically. While the material is moisture-resistant, it should not be exposed to direct water spray or high-humidity environments like shower enclosures. To maintain the panels, wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the paint finish. For transitions at the top of half-height installations, consider adding a timber dado rail to finish the raw edge.
