Our Legacy MDF panels join together with a discreet butt joint install technique for a seamless look once painted. Apply Hybrid Grab Adhesive to the back of each panel and press firmly onto the wall. Use caulk on any join lines or pin holes and sand to smooth before painting. If needed, pin the panels with 25mm pins to aid adhesion. View our fitting guide for more details.

We offer both pre-primed and unprimed panels to suit your project needs and DIY skill level. If you opt for unprimed panels, simply install them onto the wall, fill and caulk the seams, then apply a water-based primer until you achieve your desired coverage before painting. Pre-Primed panels are ready to paint.

You can use a brush, roller, or sprayer with your chosen paint colour and finish. For the best results, we recommend installing the panels first, sealing any gaps, and then painting. While pre-painting is possible, it may require touch-ups after installation and typically needs a large prep area.

Each panel covers 1.44m² (2400x600mm), 0.72m² (1200x600mm) or 0.48m²(800x600mm). Measure the height and width of your wall in metres, multiply these values together to calculate the total area, and divide by 1.44, 0.72, or 0.48 depending on panel size. Always round this up.

Panels are crafted from moisture-resistant MDF, which often has a green core. This core may be visible in machined profiles but does not affect surface quality or paint application.

For straight cuts, use a fine-toothed hand saw for a clean edge. A jigsaw can be used for larger sections, guide it carefully to avoid chipping. For middle cuts, drill a starter hole, then use a hand saw or jigsaw. For precise cuts, a multi-tool with a blade attachment is ideal.
