Full Installation Instructions / Honest Review

Love these wall panels. Read the full installation instructions (one of many ways) First the description says "32 square feet" which to most non-metric people means 8x4 which is the standard size for most sheet of plywood. However, these panels are 19.65625 x 19.65625, so they don't cover the traditional 8x4 sheet of plywood. of my drywall so I can remove it/tile if needed. Using liquid nails or double-sided tape on drywall is a recipe for disaster if you ever want to remove it. I bought 3 sheets of 4x4 hardboard from Menards for $5.50 each. I didn't want to ruin the liquid nails so I decided to use double sided tape. I picked up 3 rolls of 150ft Heavy Duty Gorilla for $10 a roll. So my total for the project, including the 3D panels themselves, was about $130. There are 12 tiles in a box and I could fit 6 lengthways on my wall leaving about 7 inches. So I decided to make 2 rows of 6 panels.1. I took 19.65625 x 6 to get 117 15/16 and 19.65625 x 2 to get 39 5/16. So I knew it was the size of my support board.2. I laid the sheets on the ground, measured, marked, and drew straight edge lines on the marks.3. I cut the panels with a circular saw. (They cut very well when cut across the grain)4. I brought the panels in, marked the edge of the wall where the first panel would sit, and then I marked the pin lines across the panels so I knew where to put the screws to meet the pins. 5. I screwed the panels to the wall at the attachment points. For the corners of the panels that weren't near the stud, I hammered in some nails to prevent the panels from coming loose from the wall at those points.6. I covered the entire structure with double sided tape. I also added a line of tape through the straight center. This way the panels have at least 2 points of contact with the tape at all points. **Note: If you mess up the tape and pull it out of the fiberboard, the tape will not stick again, so you will need to use a new tape.7. I carefully attached the 3D panels to the wall and pressed firmly to secure with tape. Take your time, it's difficult to peel the panels off the tape.8. I slowly ran my finger along all the edges to make sure all the panels had good contact with the tape. I liked my new wall. Hope that helps. These panels are amazing. With a little planning and patience, they can make a beautiful wall.
