How long is the Zenith Woodstone Gris Upstand?

Can I cut the upstand to size?

Yes, it can be cut to your required dimensions using tools suitable for laminate materials.

Is this upstand waterproof?

Yes, the compact laminate material is fully waterproof, making it ideal for kitchen splash protection.

How do I clean the upstand?

What are the dimensions of the upstand?

The dimensions are 3020mm in length, 95mm in height, and 12.5mm in thickness.

Does it come with adhesive?

Adhesive is not included with the upstand and must be purchased separately. Ensure you use a suitable adhesive for laminate and your wall surface.

Troubleshooting

Upstand not sticking securely

Ensure the wall and worktop surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use a high-quality adhesive suitable for laminate and check the application method. Allow adequate drying time as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

Visible joins detracting from the look

For longer runs, plan cuts carefully to minimize visible joins. If a join is unavoidable, ensure cuts are precise and consider using a sealant for a cleaner finish. The 3000mm length is intended to reduce this issue.

Surface appears dull or scratched

Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools. Minor scratches may be less noticeable due to the patterned finish, but significant damage may require replacement.

  • Made from durable, waterproof, and easy-to-clean compact laminate.
  • The 3000mm length minimizes the need for multiple pieces and joints.
  • Brightens the kitchen space with its light-reflecting properties.

Cons

  • The slim profile might not offer the same robust protection as thicker backsplashes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Zenith Woodstone Gris Upstand is designed for straightforward installation. Measure your required length and cut the upstand using appropriate tools for laminate materials. Apply a suitable adhesive (not included) to the back of the upstand and press firmly against the wall and worktop junction. Ensure a tight seal to prevent moisture ingress. Due to its length, assistance may be required for handling and precise alignment during installation.

Compatibility: This upstand is designed to complement most standard kitchen worktops. It creates a seamless transition between the worktop and the wall. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and flat before installation for optimal adhesion. It is compatible with most adhesive types suitable for laminate and wall surfaces.

Care: Cleaning is simple. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the surface finish. For spills, wipe them up immediately to prevent staining. Ensure the joint between the upstand and the wall is properly sealed to prevent water from seeping behind it.
