Effortless Soft Stone Veneer Panel Installation
Enhance Your Environment
Seamless Panel Installation
All surfaces should be suitably prepared to ensure they are level, clean, dry, and free of dust, grease and any loose material. Failure to prepare surface and protect it from dirt, debris and water during application may affect adherence and performance of adhesive.
Soft Stone veneer panels can be applied over existing wall linings and building skins including brick, timber, concrete, cement sheeting, in addition to non combustible building substrates that protect and seal building exteriors.
Installation Process Overview
Storage
Keep dry and free from the weather to ensure proper contact and adhesion.
Cutting
Small diamond cutting blade, scoring with a stanly knife. Corner pieces can be mitred with course sand paper as an option.
Adhesion
We recommend MAPEI KERAFLEX MAXI S1. This is a high performance tile adhesive, which is readily available from leading distributors. For internal applications Mapei offers a range of construction adhesives fit for purpose.
Grouting/silicon
Grouting the corner joints or sheet joints (optional) can be done with MAPEI KERACOLOR FF. Applying to small areas and cleaning as per manufacturer is recommended.
Sealing
It is recommended the Porcelain Outdoors Soft Stone product is coated with a weather proofing stone sealer once installed. This is a measure to aid against airborne grime.
Waterproofing
A waterproof membrane such as Mapei Mapelastic Smart is recommended to all substrates.
