FAQs
What is the exact material of this bath panel?

What are the dimensions of the panel?
The panel measures 510mm in height, 1697mm in length, and has a thickness of 2mm.
Can this panel be used with a 1500mm bath?
Yes, the panel can be cut down to size to fit a 1500mm bath. Installation will require a frame for support.
How should I clean the white gloss finish?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the gloss.
Do I need a special frame to install this panel?
Yes, installation requires a frame for the panel to rest against. This is not typically included with the panel itself.
Is this panel suitable for shower baths?
This side bath panel is designed for standard bathtubs. Compatibility with specific shower bath designs may vary and requires verification of measurements and support structure.
Troubleshooting
Panel does not fit flush against the wall.
Check the bath frame for levelness and stability. Ensure the wall is plumb or use shims behind the frame if necessary.
Panel appears bowed or warped.
Ensure the panel is adequately supported by the frame. Excessive heat or inadequate support can cause warping. Re-evaluate the frame installation.
Scratches on the surface.
Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with a plastic polish designed for acrylic surfaces. Avoid using abrasive pads during cleaning.
Panel is difficult to cut accurately.
Use a fine-toothed saw and score the panel lightly first. Secure the panel firmly before cutting and consider practicing on a scrap piece if available.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Prepare Support: Ensure a sturdy frame or plinth is in place for the panel to rest against. This support must be level and secure.
- Measure and Cut (if necessary): If fitting to a bath shorter than 1697mm (e.g., 1500mm), measure the required length and carefully cut the panel using a fine-toothed saw. Always measure twice.
- Position Panel: Place the side bath panel against the supporting frame, ensuring it is flush with the bath edge.
- Secure: Depending on your frame setup, you may use adhesive, clips, or screws to hold the panel in place. Consult your frame's installation guide for the best method.

Care:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
