Relax in your new wellness oasis and enjoy the colorful natural textures of your new stone wall in the bathroom:
Each stone veneer sheet from Slate-Lite is completely unique with a 100% natural stone surface. Bring the luxury of natural stone into your bathroom or directly into the shower!
With Slate-Lite you are not only making an excellent visual choice when renovating your bathroom, our stone veneers are also surprisingly easy to install: Thanks to its light weight and extreme thinness, you can renovate in no time at all and even stick your new favorite stone wall directly over old tiles!
Clear answer: YES!
Slate-Lite stone veneers can also be laid quickly and easily over old tiles.
This completely eliminates the tedious, dirty and laborious removal of old and unloved tiles and brings you closer to your dream bathroom faster than ever before!
Bonding to old tiles is extremely simple: once the substrate has been properly sealed in accordance with applicable DIN standards, the old tiles simply need to be cleaned to remove dust and grease.
Then apply the Slate-Lite adhesive with a B3 notched trowel and press the stone sheet into place - done!
In our tile video, you can see an example installation showing how easy it is to make old tiles disappear with Slate-Lite:
Our thin stone veneers are suitable for almost all substrates!
You can easily bond our stone veneers to these substrates, among others: Concrete, plasterboard, wood, metal, tiles, plaster, glass etc.
No special preparation is required for "stable" substrates: The substrate simply needs to be smooth, dust-free, clean and dry. Crumbling substrates such as old, flaking plaster or wallpaper that is already peeling off must be primed in advance to ensure a permanent bond between the adhesive and the wall.
Excessive unevenness in the substrate must either be treated with a primer or sanded down.
Cutting our thin stone veneers to size is extremely easy, and almost any standard DIY tool is suitable for this: You can cut Slate-Lite to the required size with millimeter precision using a hand or table saw, jigsaw or multitool.
Simply cut the stone sheet from the back using a wooden or plastic saw blade with medium teeth. If necessary, then lightly sand the cut edge with sandpaper.
The stone surface of Slate-Lite can be drilled through with any standard (stone) drill.
Nailing and screwing is also possible without any problems.
Slate-Lite can be laid butt-to-butt without a joint or with a joint - just the way you like it best!
Work as you would with any normal tile and bond the stone veneers with a tile cross in the desired joint width. Then fill the joint with a natural stone grout. Do not leave masking tape, which you have stuck to the edges to prevent grout from spilling over, on the stone surface for too long and follow the manufacturer's instructions for using the grout and the notes in our data sheet.
In the shower, we recommend laying with a joint instead of butt-to-butt to ensure easier cleaning.
Depending on the installation location, you can use Slate-Lite without additional surface protection, for example in indoor are
as with low levels of stress.
For applications in areas with high loads, such as the kitchen or in the shower and bathroom, we recommend using an additional impregnation or sealant.
This is usually applied to the stone surface with a foam roller in a criss-cross pattern; this can be done before or after installation.
For detailed instructions on the protective products, please refer to the respective data sheets and recommendations in our theme worlds. In the following video we show you an example of the simple application of our strongest sealer Slate-Lite Extreme Protection.
Slate-Lite can be cleaned with all commercially available, non-corrosive household cleaners.
In most cases, clear water and a lint-free cloth or brush will suffice.
In outdoor areas, cleaning with a high-pressure cleaner is also possible, but please observe the distance recommended by the appliance manufacturer when using it.
