Decide where you want to position your splashback, then carefully and accurately mark where the drill holes need to be. Select the correct sized drill bit and determine depth of hole required. Once drilling complete, insert wall plugs firmly into holes.

Place the bottom edge of the splashback to the rear of the sink or vanity unit lining up the pre-drilled holes with those on the wall. Insert the screws, fix to the wall and cover screw heads with decorative caps (supplied).

Use the Clear Silicone Sealant to seal around all four sides of the splashback. Take care to ensure that the sealant is no more than 2.5mm in thickness.
Health & Safety
WARNING!
SAFE HANDLING OF GLASS
We recommend that glass splashbacks are handled with care and that eye
protection and suitable gloves should be worn. We advise that the product is
brought to room temperature over a period of 24 hours if it has been subject
to very hot or cold conditions beforehand.
IMPORTANT
Unfitted glass is fragile. Do not place on hard surfaces prior to fitting.
Special care should be taken with the corners of the product as impact will
cause the glass to shatter.
Aftercare
- Simply use hot water and a mild soap detergent to clean the glass splashback. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Leave the splashback for at least 45 minutes to cool before wiping as in extreme cases applying a cold cloth to a hot surface can cause the glass to crack/shatter.
