We recommend installation to be done by millwork installers or tile trade professionals.3. Safety
During the installation of Textural Designs 3D wall tiles and panels ALL appropriate safety and respiratory equipment must be worn at all times.4. Installing the Panels
A. Pre-drill 2 holes into opposite corners of the panel with a countersink drill bit. B. Apply adhesive approximately the size of a Quarter to the back of each panel as needed6. Seaming
When mounting is complete, seaming is required to give the tiles a monolithic, continuous look. Patterns may also be left unseamed.7. Sanding
After the filler material is dry (drying times will vary based on filler type, humidity and brand) use a sanding pad or sand paper (180G or 240G) and sand away the filler material.8. Finishing
It is recommended that finishing and paint be applied after installation and seaming is complete to unify the color of the entire installation. However if the seaming material is the same color as the tiles, painting is not necessary.Helpful tools
