Q Will the colour look the same as as my paint chart?
A It will look similar on standard glass, which is actually slightly green so very light colours will have a green tinge. Darker colours will be approximately 1/4 shade darker. Where colour match is particularly important, we recommend the use of low iron glass which has almost no effect on the colour coating.

Q Will my colour coated splashback be see-through?
A You will not be able to see through it when it is affixed to the wall. ______________________________________________________
Q What surfaces can a spashback be fixed to?
A Most clean, dry surfaces including GIB, tiles and even wallpaper.

Q What tools do I need?
A Just a tape measure and a silicone (caulking) gun.

Q Can I have power points in the glass?
A Yes. We cut holes that are slightly smaller than the power point covers so that the edges are covered when installed. With toughened safety glass the power point must be at least 50 mm from the edge of the glass.

Q How will my splashback be fixed to the wall?
A Generally coated glass is attached to the wall using a special adhesive that will not react to the coating. Clear or frosted glass must be attached with stainless steel fittings.

Q Does my splashback have to be in toughened safety glass?
A Amendment No.2 of NZS5261:2003 states that any glass within 200 mm of a gas hob must be toughened glass with a minimum thickness of 5 mm. We recommend that only toughened safety glass is used, for strength, safety and longevity.

Q Can I match my cabinet door panes to my splashback?
A This is a great idea. Cabinet doors with aluminium or timber frames look great with coated glass panels. You can use them in drawer fronts too.

Q Can I use coated glass in other areas of the home?
A Yes you certainly can. They look great in any position that traditional wall tiles might have been used such as bathroom and laundry.
