Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or debris before installation.
- Measure and cut the upstand to the required length using a fine-toothed saw. *Use a guide to ensure straight cuts and support the laminate to prevent chipping during cutting.*
- Apply a suitable adhesive (e.g., strong grab adhesive or silicone sealant) to the back of the upstand or the wall.
- Press the upstand firmly into place against the wall, ensuring good contact.
- Use masking tape to hold the upstand in position while the adhesive cures.
Compatibility:
This upstand is designed to complement the Formica Originals Worktop Collection. It is compatible with most standard kitchen worktops and cabinetry. Ensure proper clearance and fitting with any integrated appliances.
Care:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Mild, non-abrasive detergent can be used if necessary.
- Wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the laminate surface.
- Do not place hot pans directly onto the upstand.
