FAQs

Do I need to sand the panels before painting?

The boards come pre-primed, but a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper can help improve the adhesion of your topcoat paint.

Can I use these panels in a bathroom?

No, standard MDF is not water-resistant and is not recommended for high-humidity environments like bathrooms.

What type of paint should I use?

Any standard interior wood or MDF paint, such as eggshell, satin, or gloss, will work well on the primed surface.

Is the adhesive included in the kit?

No, the kit contains only the MDF strips; you will need to purchase construction adhesive separately.

Can these be installed over existing wallpaper?

It is strongly recommended to remove old wallpaper first to ensure the adhesive bonds directly to the wall surface for a secure fit.

Can I cut the panels if they are too long?

Yes, although they come pre-cut, you can easily trim them further using a standard hand saw or circular saw if your wall height requires adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Panels are not sticking to the wall

Ensure the wall is clean and free of dust. Use a high-quality construction adhesive suitable for MDF and apply even pressure until the adhesive sets.

Visible gaps between joints

Apply a small amount of decorator's caulk or wood filler into the seams before painting to achieve a seamless, professional finish.

Panelling appears crooked

Always use a spirit level during the installation of the first few strips. If a piece is slightly off, remove it before the adhesive fully cures and re-align.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces project time with pre-cut dimensions
  • Primed surface allows for immediate application of topcoat paint
  • Lightweight construction makes for easy handling and mounting
  • Provides a consistent, professional-grade finish
  • Suitable for various rooms including bedrooms and hallways

Cons

  • MDF is sensitive to moisture and should not be used in high-humidity areas like bathrooms
  • Adhesives and paint are not included in the kit
  • Requires manual alignment and leveling on the wall

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure your wall surface is clean, dry, and free of loose debris or wallpaper. For best results, use a spirit level to verify that your first strip is perfectly vertical, as this sets the standard for the rest of the wall.

Compatibility: This kit is compatible with most flat, interior wall surfaces including plasterboard and existing smooth paint. Avoid mounting on textured wallpaper or loose plaster.

Care: Once installed and painted, maintain the look by dusting periodically with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could damage the paint or the MDF surface. If cleaning is necessary, use a lightly dampened cloth and wipe dry immediately.
