Is it possible to use a personal image?You have the option to use your own image; however, certain standards must be adhered to. Therefore, our team will analyze the proposed image based on the desired dimensions. For us, it is essential to: Respect copyright laws; Use an image taken by a professional-grade camera offering maximum sharpness and adequate DPI (dots per inch).

-
Can I order panels with more than one image?Absolutely! You have the option to order multiple images for your project with the SELECT, ARTISTS, and TAILOR-MADE collections.
-
How can I determine if elements of my image will be cut by a seam?Our team will analyze a visual proof of the selected and approved image, except for the INSPIRE COLLECTION. Therefore, you'll have the opportunity to modify the image if important visual elements are lost. It's important to note that not all images are subject to modifications, as we need to ensure the quality and proportions of the image.
-
What is the maximum size of the panels?The maximum size of a panel is 6 feet by 10 feet. However, the advantage of Muraluxe lies in its ability to create continuous images across multiple panels, thus offering adaptability in size according to the project. Here are some specifics: For showers, seams are placed every 6 feet at most. For backsplashes, seams are left to the customer's choice. For example, it's possible to opt for a seam on a maximum length of 10 feet, but this is only possible when the maximum height is 6 feet or less. In summary, our team will study your project to match it as closely as possible to your expectations. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us via the "Contact us" section of our website or visit one of our distributors.

-
How can I ensure optimal maintenance of my panels to prolong their lifespan?Recommended maintenance tips: Use our range of products specially designed for Muraluxe panels. Muraclean: Muraclean is suitable for all types of protective finishes on our panels. It's recognized as the best deep cleaning solution in its category. Try it on your glass, fixtures, etc., to effectively remove stubborn residues. Matte finish is as easy to maintain as glossy finish. For regular cleaning, if you don't have our dedicated products, we recommend using mild, solvent-free, pH-neutral or very low pH cleaners. The use of products containing bleach is strictly prohibited. Murashine: Murashine is a light cleaner formulated with a beading agent specially designed for our panels. This beading agent protects the finish of your panels, providing slight protection against abrasion. Try it on your glass, fixtures, etc. You'll be impressed by its effectiveness on many surfaces. You can purchase Muraclean and Murashine from our partner distributors and on our "Online boutique".
-
Why are there small imperfections on my panels and what can be done about it?Like many surfaces protected by a sealant, our Muraluxe panels may exhibit slight imperfections visible in the protective sealant. How is this possible? Our Muraluxe panels go through several manufacturing steps. The first step involves printing the chosen image. During this phase, the panel is meticulously cleaned and dusted. However, despite our efforts to maintain a controlled production environment, it's impossible to completely eliminate certain dust particles that may settle between the panel and the digital print during the printing process. The second step involves the application of the protective sealant. When the sealant is applied, some of these particles may become trapped as small dots. Although present, these dots do not affect the strength or durability of the product in any way. We always strive to eliminate and polish these small imperfections as much as possible. However, once polished, these imperfections underneath the print may appear as small white dots, a common phenomenon on many objects treated similarly. It's important to note that we do not apply any plastic or vinyl film to our panels. Our manufacturing process is entirely based on 100% printing.
-

If no installer is available or if you prefer Muraluxe to handle the installation of your panels, please contact us at Studio Muraluxe.
-
Is it possible to install my panels on studs (unfinished drywall walls)?Warning! It is strictly prohibited to directly fix Muraluxe panels on studs. The panels must be glued onto a completely flat and stable surface to ensure perfect adhesion and to avoid any gaps behind the panels. Please refer to the installation guide for more details.
-
How can I proceed with the installation of my shower base?You can install the Muraluxe panels in your shower by yourself. However, it's crucial to carefully follow the supplier's instructions to correctly install your shower base. Here are the three steps to follow for proper installation: First, install your shower base, ensuring it is perfectly leveled and secured to the wall studs. Attach your drywall panels to the studs, leaving a gap at the bottom (drywall walls should not touch the shower base). Lay the waterproofing membrane at least 24 hours before installing the Muraluxe panels. You can also refer to the video tutorial in the "Installation" section of our website for more details.
-
How do I proceed with the installation of shower glass?You can install your shower glass and door directly onto the Muraluxe panels. Here's how to proceed: Pre-drill the panel. Screw your glass and door onto the panel. The panel, previously glued with silicone, will serve as an anchor for your glass.
-
What dimensions should my panels have for a 36" by 48" shower base?If your shower base measures 36" by 48", you can order panels of 36" by 48" (at your preferred height). It's important to note that your shower base has been installed on studs and not on drywall. Therefore, the Muraluxe panels will extend beyond your shower base by approximately 5/8" on each side. This will allow you to attach your glass directly to the Muraluxe panels. For the SELECT, ARTISTS, and TAILOR-MADE collections, you can order panels in the dimensions of your choice, considering a maximum width of 60" before seams.
-
What is the role of the roof flashing when installing a panel in the shower?The roof flashing prevents any water infiltration. When applying the finishing sealant, it's essential to leave a small gap at the bottom of the corner to allow water to drain in case of potential infiltration.
-
Is it possible to install a shower niche using Muraluxe panels as cladding?Installing a niche with Muraluxe panels is entirely feasible. The installation method is similar to what you would use for a window in the shower. Firstly, test fit the panel in its entirety to confirm that the walls and shower base are perfectly square. Then proceed with the usual cuts and drilling, considering the dimensions of your niche. Refer to the installation guide for a detailed and comprehensive procedure.
