1. DIRECTLY ON LED
We recommend this option only in the case of
the installation of a single slab or a cut piece.
• Fix the led strip lights on a white wall.
• Keep a gap of 4-6 cm between the LED
strips and the slab in order to avoid seeing
the dots of the LED strip light through the
slab.
• Fix the slab on the perimeter of the frame
of the niche
• Use a transparent adhesive according to
the specifications indicated in the technical
data sheet of the chosen adhesive.
• Do not spread the adhesive in the central
area of the slab.
• Fix a frame or profile on the perimeter of
the slab (top, down, left and right at your
choice), in order to secure the slab and
to cover the shadows of the adhesive if
visible.
2. ON A TRANSPARENT HARD SURFACE (GLASS,
THICK PLEXIGLASS OR LIGHT BOX)
We recommend this option in case of the
installation of multiple slabs or cut pieces in
order to avoid bending or visible interruptions.
We also recommend this option when you
need to install a single slab in a more stable and
secure way.
• Fix the LED strip lights or the light box on a
white wall.
• If you chose the led strip option, fix
the glass, or the Plexiglas surface at a
minimum distance of 2-4 cm from the LED
strip lights in order to avoid seeing the
dots of the LED strip through the slab.
• Deeply clean the glass, or the Plexiglas, or
the light box surface before the application
of the adhesive.
• Use a transparent adhesive according to
the specifications indicated in the technical
data sheet of the chosen adhesive.
• Evenly spread the adhesive on the back of
the slab by using a spatula in order to get
a homogeneous layer of adhesive. Do not
use rolls or other tools in order not to have
a visible layer of adhesive.
• Fix a frame or profile on the perimeter of
the slab (top, down, left and right at your
choice), in order to secure the slabs.
1. Create a niche in the wall in order to have an empty space to allocate the LED strip light or the light box.
2. We recommend to use a neutral LED COLOR (3600K-5500K) and to fix the LED strips vertically or horizontally, covering the full space of the
niche, in order to avoid dark areas and to get a homogeneous light.
3. Deeply clean the back of the slabs before the installation in order to avoid seeing any shadow.
