Storage
- The edges of stacked panels are aligned to prevent damage caused by bumping against overhanging edges or corners and discoloration due to sunlight.
- Don’t slide, push or drop the boards
- Ensure the floor of storage area is clean and there are no nails, screws or any sharp items scattered.
- The storage area must be dry and well ventilated. An average relative humidity of 50% ensures a moisture content of 7 to 9% in the panels.
- Where extremely damp or extremely dry conditions may occur during transport, temporary storage or on site, the panels are wrapped in plastic foil.
- Remove the packing paper before using the board and BOPP film should be removed after using the board.
- Boilo – BWP HOF Board panels are best stacked horizontally in packs, preferably on pallets or on dry stacked beams (70 x 70 mm or 90 x 90 mm). On potentially damp substrates, a waterproof foil, e.g. polyethylene foil, is installed before the panels are stacked on it.
- The stacked beams are placed on top of each other, in order to prevent warpage/deflection of the Boilo – BWP HOF Board.
- To limit the adverse effects of varying ambient conditions, one or two scrap panels are placed on top of the stacks during processing or for prolonged storage periods.
- Store stacked panels away from open doors & windows.
For proper storage refer Pie 1 When using stacked beams, they must be of equal thickness and spaced no more than 800mm apart. For Boilo – BWP HOF Board less than 15mm thick, it is recommended to use stacked beams, e.g. spaced at intervals of 50 times the board thickness (see Table 1 ). The sides of the panels shall project no more than 200mm from the outer stacked beams. Cutting
- The ideal cutting equipment shall be a Panel Saw with a primary Cutting blade & a secondary scoring blade or Branded Hand-Held Circular Saw. The Cutting motor shall drive between 5000 RPM – 7000 RPM
- During sawing, the Boil□ – BWP HOF Board panel should be kept on perfectly leveled surface and the saw blade must be free of vibrations. Please also ensure that direction of Blade is same as per direction mark on machine.
- For the processing of large Boil□ – BWP HOF Board quantities, the use of TCT Saw Blade, in spite of the higher cost, be economically justified because of their longer working time (i.e. the time between regrinding of the tool).
- To avoid chipping in prelaminated board, please use 6mm scrap board in bottom side at the time of cutting. And also ensure that saw blade should be sharp.
- Cutting the board by Hand Cutter, TESA Recommended feeding speed is:
- for 12 mm Board – 10-12 second per mtr.
- for 18 mm Board – 22-25 second per mtr.
Note : – before using the Panels esure to keep it at site for 48 to 72 Hours for conditioning.
Profiling and Drilling
-
TESAB□ilo – BWP HOF Board are best suited for Profiling.
-
For rigid and sharp profiles, it is advised to use hard metal (HM) tools.
-
For large series, the use of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) cutting tools is recommended, as it allows a working time to be achieved that is 50 to 60 times that of conventional hard metal tools.
-
For best results always use sharpened tools
-
Simple profiles with curved edges are more preferred than sharp edges.
-
Where there is a risk of damage by impacts (e.g. kitchen doors), a minimum radius of 3mm is recommended.
-
The slightly radiused edges are better coated with paint or varnish and will therefore offer greater resistance to hard impacts.
-
For drilling Boilo – BWP HOF Board panels, standard drills and speeds of approx. 3500r. p.m. are recommended, which allows high quality drilled holes with limited material accumulation on the rear side to be obtained.
-
To prevent material tearing on the rear side in case of drilled through holes, it is recommended to drill half of the hole depth on either side of the panel.
-
Special care should be taken to drill both holes halves in a perfectly straight line.
Tools
- The use of hard metal cutters is recommended because they produce a better surface finish and have a longer working time.
- Disposable cutters have better technical performance but the material is more brittle. The use of disposable cutters is cost-effective because of the limited downtime of the machines, the correct profiling, and the constant diameter of the cutter (no adjustment necessary). The cutter can either be turned around or replaced, whilst the tool itself remains on the machine.
- For series production, increasing use is being made of polycrystalline diamond milling tools.
Sanding Belts
- Sanding belts can be used for simple profile shapes.
- A fine finish is obtained by sanding in two steps: first with grit 80 against the feed direction and then with grit 120 in the feed direction.
- The panel surface can also be fine sanded using sanding belts with grit size less than 150, e.g. for lacquering Boil□ – BWP HOF Board surfaces.
- Sanding belts have the advantage that they last longer because a lower temperature is generated by the associated friction. Sanding belts are less suited for intricate profiles.
Sanding Brushes
- Sanding brushes can be mounted both on manual machines and on a sanding facility of a production line.
- They are efficient for deep and narrow profiles or for very wide milled recesses (several layers of brushes on top of each other).
- The recommended speed can amount up to 3000 r.p.m., depending on the brush diameter.
Edge Banding
- For edge banding use PVC tape only.
- Use hot melt glue orPUR Glue for pasting edge band on Boilo – BWP HOF Board edges
- Apply glue on one edge of the board and spread the glue uniformly on the edges with help of glue spreader/ knife etc.
- Place the edge band on the edge and apply uniform pressure to ensure oozing out of excess glue from the joint portion. Remove the excess glue gently and carefully using cotton cloth.
- Press the edge band joint for 2-5 minutes under hand pressure and then apply masking tape to hold the joint firmly.
- Strong bond will be obtained within 4-6 hours and full bond strength can be achieved only after 24 Hrs at room temperature.
- For finishing the work within 1 hour, wrap the edge with thick cotton cloth and apply hot iron for 1 minute and repeat the process 4-5 times.
Screws
Please find below useful and important tip regarding how to use screw on Boil□
– BWP HOF Board offers excellent resistance to screw pull-out (screw-holding
capacity), both in the face and on the edges.
Diameter of Drill Bit: Ensure that the diameter of drill bit is less than the
diameter of screw.
Diameter of Pilot Hole : Ensure thatthe diameter of drill hole is 85% ofthan
the diameter of screw.
Length of Drill : Ensure that the length of drill bit is more than the length
of screw.
Length of Pilot Hole : Ensure that the length of drill hole is 2-3mm more than
the length of screw.
Atleast 1.5 inch distance from Edge: While fastening screw directly on Boil□ –
BWP HOF Board face, ensure that a minimum distance of 1.5 inch to the panel
edge and 35mm to the corners is maintained.
Atleast 2.5 inch distance from end : While fastening screw directly on Boil□ –
BWP HOF Board then, ensure that a minimum distance of2.5 inch to corner/edge
is maintained.
Don’t over tighten : Tighten the screw slowly and steadily. Don’t over tighten
the screw. Over tightening may lead to crack in board. You can use Self
Tapping Screw also.

Joinery Fittings
Joinery Fittings commonly available in market can be used for joining Boil□ – BWP HOF Board
Joints
- TESA Boil□ – BWP HOF Board can be joined using simple technique.
- The edges must be level and square.
Paint and Polish
- The Boil□ – BWP HOF Board surfaces must be clean and dust free.Any contaminations, e.g. fat or residual building products, must be removed.
- The Boil□ – BWP HOF Board panels are preferably conditioned before the paint finish is applied. Painting is carried out in more or less the same climatic conditions as those in which the Boil□ – BWP HOF Board panels will effectively be used. In this way, cracks and stresses that might occur during strong temperature or moisture variations, can be avoided in the painted surface.
- After filling and/or repair, the surface to be treated is preferably sanded with grit::: P220 in order to obtain a smooth finish and good adhesion.After sanding the surface must be cleaned of dust.
- Awhile, low odour, insulating, physically drying paint is preferably used for the primer coating.
- The insulating primer coat prevents unequal absorption of the top coats and spreading of possible stains or colour irregularities from the substrate.
- Any damages must be repaired with materials that are compatible with the subsequent paint system e.g. polyester filler.
- Next the surface must be slightly sandpapered (grit P180-P220), while also making sure to neatly remove the sanding dust.
- For the top coats the following paints can be used:
- Solvent- or water-borne paint (e.g. PU-Satin and Hydrosilk from Boss Paints).
- Wall paint, both water-borne paint ( e.g. latex paint, acryl paint or vinyl paint) and synthetic paint.
- To obtain a well-covering coating, at least two top coats are recommended.
- Don’t leave the Boil□ – BWP HOF Board surface & edges bare, either paint it or paste laminate on it paste edge band on the edges.
- To avoid warpage/bending problem, use same thickness of coating or laminate on the balancing

which makes the boards best suitable for routing and engraving
Wall Paneling
- To avoid bending problem in wall paneling always use panel size 4 feetX 4 feet or 2ftx 8ft and ensure to give 2-3mm gap between the panels.
- Please ensure that bare board should not be in direct contact will the wall.
- While paneling inner side of the exterior wall, use foam or frame of plastic/metal is recommended to avoid transfer of water/ moisture on the frame and the board.
- As per ISi standard warpage/bending 2mm per meter is acceptable, its also applicable for Boil□ – BWP HOF Board.
USAGE TIPS FOR ( TESA BOARDS) -WALL PANELING
- Condition the panel to the room condition/ local climatic condition, stand them individually along the long edge or lay them flat with wood sticks spaced between them so that air circulates around each panel for at least 48 hours.
- Check existing wall condition for dryness, it should not have any type of dampness or moisture. , dampness must be repaired properly.
- Thickness of Bai lo – BWP HOF Board recommended are8mm or 12 mm.
- For partition up to 3000 mm, Kiln dried treated wooden frame to be used for the grid with section size of 65 mm x 30 mm with half lap joint and for height above 3000 mm and up to 4500 mm the section size should be 100 mm x 30 mm.
- The wooden frame and all unexposed area for the tile must be painted with 2 coats of primer paint. In case of any type of lamination, it must be ensured the thickness of the laminate is same on both front and back surface.
- Recommended tile size is 800 mm x 800 mm up to 3000 mm paneling and 900 mm x 900 mm for above 3000 mm paneling.
- A gap of 3-6 mm must be kept between the tiles.
- Screwing to be done at every 300 mm
- It is suggested to paint the grid where the panels will be joined, using color matching with the edges or grooves of the panel. This will make the joint less noticeable.
- The expansion gaps should not be sealed, however in case the gaps are filled, then the gap width to be increased to atlest 6 mm and the filling to be done by silicon sealant so that it will allow expansion and contraction. Never seal the gaps with any solid/ Hard filler.

FOR BEST RESULT-PASTING OF MICA ON TESABOARD
- Store laminates, Substrates and Adhesive for at least 48 hours at the same ambient condition for acclimatization before use.
- Before Pasting, ensure that the surface is properly levelled and is free from any kind of dirt like oil, grease, excess moisture and the contaminants.
- To avoid stress cracking, avoid making cut outs having sharp corners and rough edges.
- Use a good quality adhesive and stir well before use.
- Adding water into the adhesive only makes the bonding weak.
- Use accurate quantity of Adhesive on the Substrate (Boil□ – BWP HOF Board) and laminate for good bonding
- Apply an even coat of adhesive with the help of brush, comb type spreader or paint roller evenly on the surfaces of laminate and Substrate (Boil□ – BWP HOF Board) that requires bonding.
- Once the adhesive applied gets tacky in nature (Usually requires 5-10 minutes, depending on atmospheric conditions), the laminate need to be placed on the surface, accurately aligned and pressed down firmly to ensure proper bonding.
- Extreme care should be taken during alignment and pressing to guarantee an absence of air bubbles.
- For satisfactory bonding, the area in question should be kept under pressure for a period of 12- 18 hours (depending on atmospheric conditions).
- In rainy season or when humidity is too high, keep bonded assembly for minimum 18 hours under pressure for good bonding.
- When laminate is to be pasted vertically, maintain uniform pressure on all sides till adhesive is dried.
- The size of vertical application should be limited to 610mmX2400mm. Larger sized bonded assemblies should be fabricated in the workshop to avoid bubbles.
- Avoid direct sun light on board at the time of laminate pasting.
