Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, allow the boards to acclimatize in the room where they will be fitted for at least 48 hours to minimize natural expansion or contraction. Ensure your wall surface is flat and dry; if the surface is uneven, install timber battens first to provide a level substrate. Use a fine-tooth saw for cross-cutting and either a nail gun or high-strength panel adhesive for mounting. Since the wood is untreated, it is highly recommended to apply your chosen wood stain or primer to all sides of the board, including the tongues and grooves, before installation to prevent warping and to ensure full coverage.
