Abstract (en)

Method for mounting a plurality of wall panels (1) to a surface (23), such as a bathroom wall. The method includes providing first and second wall panels (1), each wall panel having a first major surface (7) having a pattern of channels (9) formed therein, said pattern of channels (9) defining an arrangement of tile-like areas (5) in the first major surface (7), a second major surface (13) located substantially opposite to the first major surface (7), and at least one side wall (15,17,19,21); attaching at least one portion of double sided adhesive tape or film (25) onto the surface (23); mounting the first wall panel (1) onto the surface (23) by attaching a peripheral portion of its second major surface (13) onto the double sided adhesive tape or film (23); applying sealant (27) to at least one of the double sided adhesive tape or film (25) and the first wall panel (1); mounting the second wall panel (1) onto the surface (23) by attaching a peripheral portion of its second major surface (13) onto the double sided adhesive tape or film (25), the arrangement being such that the side wall (15,17,19,21) of the second wall panel (1) is located adjacent to, and substantially parallel with, the side wall (15,17,19,21) of the first wall panel (1), and wherein a peripheral portion of the first major surface (7) for the first wall panel (1) and a peripheral portion of the first major surface (7) of the second wall panel (1) are each arranged such that when the first and second wall panels (1) are positioned side by side said peripheral portions define a channel (9) that is substantially similar to at least one of the channels (9) formed in the first and second wall panels (1).
