INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

SELF-ADHESIVE WALL COVERING

Read all instructions carefully prior to starting installation.

Always inspect the self-adhesive tiles upon opening the box,

to check for defects.

Put the tiles in the room where you plan to install them

(at least 6 hours prior), so they acclimate to the temperature

and humidity. Place them horizontally on a ﬂat surface.

The temperature in the room where the tiles will be installed

must be between 50 °F/10 °C and 82 °F/28 °C.

If you plan to ax the self-adhesive tiles on rough or porous

walls, or if you have any doubts about their adhesion, we

recommend ﬁrst installing three tiles and letting the adhesive

dry for 24 hours to validate.

1. TOOLS & MATERIALS REQUIRED

Measuring tape Spirit level Pencil Utility knife Caulking gun

Bi-metal hole saws

Drywall saw

or oscillating saw

Paint brush and roller

(if the surface is porous

and needs to be sealed)

2. BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION

2.1 Check that all the tiles in the dierent boxes are the same color and have the same batch number, to ensure a

uniform tone.

2.2 The tiles will have slight shade and pattern variations for a natural look. It is recommended that you mix tiles from

the dierent boxes and lay them out in the order you plan to install them prior to starting the installation.

3. SURFACE PREPARATION 3.1 Make sure the surface is clean and free of dust or any other substances that can detach once the wall covering is installed (e.g. wallpaper, peeling paint, etc.). 3.2 Surface Design tiles install directly on many surfaces. However, if your wall is porous (concrete, plaster, wood, etc.), we recommend first applying a sealant or a primer for better adhesion. 3.

5. FOR A SHOWER OR BATHTUB INSTALLATION 5.1 Apply silicone sealant around the perimeter of each tile (before installing the next), to keep water from entering.
