Wall panel is typically designed to be installed over existing walls, including drywall, and it can provide an attractive and durable covering for your walls.Here's a general guide on how to install PinGer wall panel over drywall:
1. Inspect the drywall: Check the condition of the drywall to ensure it is sound and free from damage. Repair any cracks, holes, or imperfections before proceeding.
2. Clean the walls: Wipe down the drywall surface to remove any dust, dirt, or grease. This will ensure proper adhesion of the panel.
3.Choose the panel: Select the type of wall panel you want to install. The quality wall panel is rich in color and texture, and has many excellent properties such as antibacterial and mildew, anti-collision and wear-resistant, fireproof and moisture-proof, easy to install, etc. It is an ideal choice for wall materials.
4. Measure and cut the panels: Measure the dimensions of your walls, taking into account any openings for doors, windows, or outlets. Use these measurements to cut the panel to the appropriate size. Remember to leave space for expansion and contraction if necessary.
5. Apply adhesive: Apply construction glue to the wall according to the manufacturer's instructions, using enough adhesive to form a strong bond.
6. Install the panel: Press the panel firmly against the drywall, aligning it properly with the edges or any markings you made. Apply pressure evenly across the surface to ensure good contact between the panel and drywall.
7. Repeat the process: Continue measuring, cutting, and installing the panels until you have covered the desired area. Pay attention to matching patterns or ensuring a consistent installation for uniformity.
8. Finish the edges: Use wall trim or molding to cover the edges where the panel meets the floor, ceiling, or corners for a clean and finished look.
