Before you begin
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND IN FULL BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT.
Please note that these instructions only contain general information and recommendations for using ROS UltraLight products. These instructions are purely informative. In case of doubt, you must seek independent advice from authorised personnel (on site) regarding the use, application and installation of this product. Check the local building regulations to ensure that the use of this product meets the requirements for proper construction.
- ROS UltraLight may only be used as decorative wall panelling for indoor areas.
- Avoid any kind of surface contamination when handling, as this is often difficult to remove.
- We recommend using a specially developed system product: Assembly adhesive = Loctite Power Grab Ultimate Construction Adhesive or Equal.
- Use correct (and clean) tools when handling. We recommend using a spirit level, a utility knife, a folding ruler, a square, a pencil and a skeleton gun.
- UltraLight products can withstand temperatures between minimum +5°C (+41°F) and maximum +50°C (+122°F).
- Apply the product at temperatures between +15°C (+59°F) and +35°C (+95°F).
Substrate
- Ensure that the substrate is solid, flat, viable, stressless, clean, dry and free of dust, dirt or separating layers. Carry out all necessary preparations on the wall’s surface, such as cleaning, repairing damage to the surface, removing loose layers (e.g. wallpaper) and paint/coatings, repairing, evening out and priming plaster.
- Warning! Walls freshly plastered with gypsum must be sanded down and dusted before being worked on. Priming is required for this type of application.
- The assessment of the condition and suitability of the substrate must take place on site and is your responsibility. If in doubt, seek specialist advice.
Installing the products
-
Before installing the products, use a spirit level to check whether the area where you intend to use the products is straight. To do this, apply a vertical stop to the wall, possibly using a wooden slat or a metal profile.
Note the following assembly restrictions:
1. UltraLight products are not suitable for assembly in close proximity to heat sources such as chimneys and ovens where temperatures above +50 °C (+122°F) can occur over prolonged periods or where the products can come into contact with fire.
2. Assembly on walls that are or may be used intensively must also be avoided. -
! UltraLight products are installed from the bottom up!
-
Always check the products thoroughly before handling them. Always lay out a few stones (e.g. 3-5 m² / 32-54 ft²) ready near the work area. This helps when calculating the right distribution and ensures faster assembly. You can easily correct sizes using a fine-toothed handsaw. Install the UltraLight products randomly to achieve the best results.
-
Apply the adhesive lengthways to the back of the individual UltraLight products evenly up to max. 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edge.
-
Install the product in the right position.
-
Do not use too much adhesive. Remove excess adhesive residue immediately using a clean, damp sponge.
-
Press the UltraLight product firmly to ensure good adhesion to the substrate.
-
Minor adjustments can be made to the position of the stone after bonding.
-
Check that the panels are still level every 2-3 rows.
-
Adjust where necessary.
-
Trimming the products: To ensure the ROS UltraLight
elements line up well next to each other, you can trim/shorten them using a fine-toothed handsaw or a utility knife. To ensure that shortened edges are not visible, rotate them (downwards when below eye height; upwards when above eye height). -
Stresses on the substrate or on the UltraLight product should be avoided.
Maintenance & cleaning
- When cleaning, do not use acidic products, pressure cleaners, sandblast equipment, chemical detergents or steel brushes as they may damage the surface.
- Use a clean, soft - and perhaps slightly damp - cloth for cleaning.
Additional treatment
- The non-acrylic coated uniformly colored UltraLight products, such as the UL Benvento and the UL Tasso can be coated with a solvent-free emulsion paint. To ensure you receive good advice and obtain the desired effect, we recommend taking a piece of the UltraLight product with you to your specialist/local retailer. The user and the manufacturer of the treatment agent are responsible for the performance/effect of the agent. Read the instructions for using the treatment agent carefully and follow them exactly. We recommend that you always test the product on a small area first before applying it to the entire surface.
- Leave the ROS adhesive to dry for at least 24 hours before processing the UltraLight product any further.
General information
- ROS UltraLight must only be used inside in dry, well-ventilated areas. The products must not be used under water or come into contact with water. If in doubt, seek specialist advice from your supplier.
- Dimensions: All measurements are nominal values and are subject to manufacturing tolerances. We are continually working to renew and improve our products. ROS therefore reserves the right to change the design and specifications without prior notice.
- Colours: The colours of all ROS products may vary. Occasionally our products are produced at different times and contain organic components, which is why identical colours and shades cannot be guaranteed. These variations highlight the natural appearance of Klimex products and do not have any effect on the technical suitability of the products.
- Conditions: In the unlikely event that you are dissatisfied with the condition in which you received the products, inform the retailer of this immediately. Warning: If you install a product that has been deemed defective prior to use, we shall not be held liable for any costs resulting from the use of these faulty products. While we endeavour to advise you as best we can, ROS shall not be held liable for any loss, damage or injury due to following this advice. We shall not be liable if products have been used for any purpose other than the intended purpose or if damage occurs due to non-compliance with our advice.
Health & safety
Always read the instructions for use and the guidelines for the product you are using first. If in doubt always seek specialist advice first.
CAUTION: UltraLight paneling is an expanded polystyrene foam (EPS) based product and is combustible. Care should be taken in installing panels to allow for space between panels and heat producing appliances / ignition sources. Consult your local building code authority for guidelines and requirements.
