Prepare the surface
Ensure your wall surface is clean, dry, and dust-free. Remove any loose paint, old wallpaper, or debris. The surface should be flat and stable. NOVOTTI panels can be applied directly over existing tiles, painted walls, plasterboard, or concrete.
Measure and plan your layout
Measure your wall dimensions carefully. Each NOVOTTI panel covers 3.44 mยฒ (2800 ร 1230 mm). Calculate how many panels you need and plan your layout to minimize waste. Start from the most visible corner and work outward.
Cut panels to size
Use a sharp utility knife and straight edge to score and snap the panels, or use a jigsaw for curved cuts around fixtures. NOVOTTI panels are easy to cut โ no special tools required. Always measure twice and cut once.
Apply adhesive
Apply a high-quality construction adhesive to the back of the panel using a notched trowel. Create uniform ridges across the entire surface. Alternatively, apply adhesive directly to the wall in a grid pattern for larger panels.
Fix the panel to the wall
Press the panel firmly against the wall, aligning it with your guidelines. Apply even pressure across the entire surface. Use temporary supports or painter’s tape to hold panels in place while the adhesive cures (24โ48 hours).
Finishing touches
Once all panels are installed and adhesive has cured, apply silicone sealant along edges, corners, and around fixtures for a waterproof finish. Use a matching colour silicone for the neatest result. Clean the panel surface with a damp cloth.
