FAQs

Are these boards pre-painted?

No, they arrive factory-primed, which serves as a smooth base for you to apply your final coat of paint.

Can I use these in a bathroom?

Yes, the boards are made from moisture-resistant MDF, making them suitable for most household areas including bathrooms, provided they are not subject to direct standing water.

How many boards come in a pack?

Each pack contains four boards.

Do I need to sand the boards before painting?

A light scuff-sand is recommended to remove any dust and ensure the best possible adhesion for your topcoat.

What type of paint should I use?

Standard water-based or oil-based wood paints are perfectly compatible with the factory-primed surface.

Can these be installed on uneven walls?

While best on flat walls, small irregularities can be managed with flexible caulking or adhesive, though significant unevenness may require a more involved installation process.

Troubleshooting

Board is not sitting flush against the wall

Check for wall irregularities or debris behind the board; sand or plane the back of the MDF if necessary to accommodate wall curvature.

Joints are visible or uneven

Ensure cuts are precise with a sharp mitre saw and use wood filler specifically designed for MDF to fill small gaps before painting.

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface is dust-free and lightly scuff-sand the factory primer to improve surface texture before applying your topcoat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable moisture-resistant construction
  • Pre-primed surface saves preparation time
  • Versatile design matches most interior aesthetics
  • Consistent quality across all pieces in the pack

Cons

  • Requires a final paint application after installation
  • May require professional cutting tools for perfect miters
  • Limited to a single rounded profile style

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your wall surfaces are clean, dry, and flat. Use a high-quality wood adhesive and appropriate fixings, such as screws or nails, to secure the boards to the wall studs. For corners, use a professional mitre saw to ensure clean 45-degree angle joints.

Compatibility: These boards are compatible with most standard wall types, including plasterboard and masonry, provided the correct fixing method is chosen.

Care: To maintain the appearance, wipe down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners. If scuffed, the boards can be lightly sanded and touched up with your original topcoat paint color to restore the finish.
