How to Use Easycraft VJ Panels for Waterproof Walls and Ceilings

If you are looking for a stylish and durable way to decorate your walls and ceilings, you might want to consider Easycraft VJ panels. These panels are made from Australian hardwoods and come pre-primed for easy installation. They have a hidden tongue and groove system that creates a seamless finish and a high impact resistance that makes them 300% tougher than plasterboard. They are also available in different profiles and spacing options to suit your design preferences.

But what if you want to use Easycraft VJ panels in wet areas, such as bathrooms and laundries? Can they withstand moisture and humidity without warping or rotting? The answer is yes, if you choose the right product. Easycraft has a special range of panels called easyULTRA Wet Area Interior Applications that are designed for this purpose. These panels have the same features as the regular Easycraft VJ panels, except that they are made from a combination of hardwoods that have low-fibre swell characteristics. This means that they can resist water absorption and swelling, making them ideal for wet areas.

To install Easycraft VJ panels in wet areas, you need to follow some simple steps:

Measure and cut the panels to fit your wall or ceiling dimensions. You can use a circular saw or a hand saw for this task.

Apply a waterproof membrane or coating to the wall or ceiling surface where you want to install the panels. This will prevent water from seeping behind the panels and damaging the substrate.

Fix the panels to the wall or ceiling using nails or screws. Make sure to leave a 3mm gap between the panels and the floor, ceiling, and corners to allow for expansion and contraction.

Fill the gaps between the panels with a flexible sealant that matches the colour of the panels. This will create a waterproof barrier and a smooth finish.

Paint the panels with a water-based paint that is suitable for wet areas. You can choose any colour you like, but make sure to apply at least two coats for better protection and coverage.

And that's it! You have successfully installed Easycraft VJ panels in your wet area and created a beautiful and waterproof wall or ceiling. You can enjoy the benefits of these panels for years to come, as they are backed by a seven-year warranty from Easycraft.
