Splashbacks DIY

Seratone

Seratone Metallics is a lightweight, high-density fibreboard coated with a multi-layered paint system. The finish is smooth and non-porous, providing a tough, durable surface that easily resists marks, stains, steam or moisture.

Seratone is easy to work with. The fibreboard substrate can be cut, shaped and curved to meticulous standards with simple woodworking tools and attached to the wall with sealants or liquid nails. A wide range of joining options (including colour matched silicone sealants and aluminium jointers) make it possible to achieve a vast array of different looks including a near seamless, monolithic appearance.

One sheet of Seratone will give 5.4m x 597mm  of splashback for $600 incl GST and the matching mouldings 2.4m long cost $80.

Seratone is easy to clean using non abrasive detergent and a soft cloth.
