Safety Measures to Consider
Safety should always come first. Equip yourself with gloves and goggles to prevent cuts or debris injuries. Ensure the workspace is well-ventilated when working with adhesives.
Preparing the Wall Surface
Clean the Surface: Ensure the wall is smooth and free of dust or grease to allow proper adhesion.
Measure Accurately: Use a measuring tape to determine the dimensions of the area to be covered. Mark these on both the wall and the panels to avoid errors.
Step 1: Cutting the Panels
Using an electric circular saw, cut the panels to the required dimensions. Precision is key to avoid gaps or misalignments during installation.
Step 2: Applying Adhesive
Apply nail-free glue evenly on the back of each panel using a glue gun. Ensure adequate coverage for a strong bond.
Step 3: Placing the Panels
Press each panel firmly onto the wall, starting from one end. For a seamless finish, lightly pat the panel into place.
Step 4: Installing Metal Trim
Insert metal trims into the panel grooves and secure them to the wall using a nail gun. This step enhances stability and adds a professional finish.
Step 5: Securing the Panels
Use steel buckle clips to fasten the panels firmly in place. Follow the sequence from one side to the other for consistent alignment.
