Worktop Jointing Glue, Solid Surface, Satin Grey, Apollo® Slab Tech

Measuring up:

• Apollo® Slab Tech solid surface can expand as much as 1 mm/mtr. Always allow a gap of at least 3 mm if for example, worktops are captive between walls
• Tolerance is ±2 mm
• Splashbacks and upstands over 100 mm high must have a minimum gap from the face to the rear of the hob - electric 50 mm, gas 100 mm
• Allow a minimum 50 mm from the cut-out to the front edge
• Wherever possible, joints in worktops should fall on a carcase end panel, giving added support to a joint
• Joints should be a minimum of 100 mm from the sink or 120 mm from a hob cut-out
• Allow a minimum of 120 mm between heated cut-outs
• Stainless steel sink cut-outs to manufacturer’s recommendations
• Overhangs in excess of 300 mm should be supported and the worktop should be supported every 600 mm

Installation:

• Some colours have different levels of pigmentation (particles). This may lead to a variation in the aesthetic appearance of the worktop
• Plastering or tiling should be completed after installation
• Regular use of the car and maintenance kit should ensure worktops stay in good condition
• Installation is relatively easy, for either a competent DIY enthusiast or recognised kitchen installer to carry out
• No specialist tool required. Can be cut using normal woodworking routers and blades
• Plan the worktop layout to ensure jonits don’t fall or within 100 mm of cut-outs
