placing
- 1Make a scale drawing of the ceiling or wall. Mark the layout of the tiles on it; add the filler panels and cornices if applicable.
- 2Make sure the substrate (wall/ceiling) you will be working on is level.
- 3Copy your drawing from point 1 to the ceiling and draw the centre of the pattern with a chalk line.
- 4Start in the centre of the room and work your way out. Make sure the tiles overlap on the outer edge.
- 5Install the tiles first. Then the filler panels (if applicable) and finally the cornices.
- 6The panels can be cut to size with a paper cutter or scissors. In the case of corners, they can be easily bent.
- 7When the substrate is of wood, the tiles can be fastened using a tacker with brad nails or you can use construction adhesive. In the case of plasterboards, we recommend construction adhesive.
- 8When using brad nails, position them every 15 to 30 cm on the outer edge of the tiles.
filler panels and decorative cornices
- 9When applying large wall cornices, we recommend using a wooden attachment at the corners and seams.
- 10Separate seams can be corrected by tapping with a wooden block.
