FAQs

Can I use this cladding in a bathroom?

No, this is an MDF-based product and should not be used in high-humidity areas like bathrooms or areas subject to direct water contact.

What type of paint should I use?

You can use standard interior wood paint, such as eggshell, satin, or gloss, once the surface has been properly prepared.

How do I fix the cladding to the wall?

It is typically installed using a combination of strong panel adhesive and mechanical fixings like nails or screws, which are often concealed by the shiplap overlap.

Can I cut this with a standard saw?

Yes, standard hand saws or power tools such as a circular saw or miter saw work effectively with 12mm MDF.

What is the primary benefit of the grey primer?

The factory-applied primer acts as an excellent base, reducing the amount of topcoat paint needed and ensuring a consistent finish across the surface.

Troubleshooting

Board edges look uneven after installation

Ensure the first board is installed perfectly level, as any deviation will be magnified across the wall width.

Paint finish is not smooth

Ensure the grey primed surface was lightly sanded before applying your first coat of paint to remove any raised fibers.

Board is bowing or warping

The product may have been stored in a damp or poorly ventilated area; always store flat and keep away from moisture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly faster coverage due to 294mm width
  • Pre-primed surface saves time on base coat applications
  • Sturdy 12mm MDF construction ensures a stable, flat wall finish
  • Classic shiplap look is versatile for various interior decor styles

Cons

  • Not suitable for external applications or high-humidity environments
  • Length of 4.88m may be difficult to transport in standard passenger vehicles
  • Requires careful storage in a dry, flat area to prevent warping before installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, allow the MDF cladding to acclimate to the room's temperature and humidity for 48 hours. When installing, use appropriate screws or high-quality wood adhesive depending on your wall substrate. Since the boards come grey primed, they are ready for a topcoat of your chosen paint, though a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper is recommended between coats for a professional finish. Keep the product away from damp environments like bathrooms or kitchens where direct steam or water contact could compromise the MDF core. Store boards flat on a clean, dry surface to prevent bowing until the moment of installation.
