How to Apply-

1. Surfaces to which the panels are to be applied need to be firm, clean and dry. For optimum bonding porous surfaces should be sized with PVA bond and glossy surfaces roughened with sand paper.
2. Apply the Thermal adhesive evenly to the wall with an adhesive roller, brush or spatula. Typical paste consumption should be 0.5kg per m2, more on particularly poor or uneven surfaces - less on surfaces in good condition.
3. If the wall is uneven apply the first tile to the highest area to allow the leveling of subsequent tiles.
4. Apply adhesive over an area sufficient for one tile at a time initially until you are confident with the application process.
5. The grey side of the tile should be applied to the wall.
6. Use a rubber roller or similar to apply pressure to the surface ensuring an even bond.
7. Level panels to one another with the aid of a straight edge.
8. Panels can be trimmed with a craft knife where necessary in corners and around other features.
9. Drying can take up to 48 hours depending on ambient temperatures, humidity and depth of adhesive.
10. Once dry joints can be filled with proprietary solvent free filler or the Thermal adhesive can be used as a filler on small imperfections.
11. The panels are then ready for subsequent decoration without the need for surface priming.
12. If painting use a water based paint, in any event
we recommend testing on a small area first.
13. When applying wallpaper we recommend preparation with a strong lining paper first such as Wallrock Fibreliner applied with a good quality ready mixed adhesive to provide
a superior bond.
14. When applying tiles use a standard solvent free tile adhesive and follow the manufacturers instructions.
