Installation

Installation Guide

No wet-set masonry, no specialty crew required — MUREA installs like a heavyweight wallcovering.

Tools Needed

What you’ll need on site

Utility Knife

For clean, straight cuts and detail trimming.

Notched Trowel

6mm notch for even adhesive coverage.

Flexible Adhesive

MUREA Bond or an approved polyurethane adhesive.

J-Roller

Ensures full contact and removes air pockets.

Step by Step

Installing MUREA in six steps

Prepare the surface

Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, structurally sound, and free of dust or grease.

Dry-fit and plan seams

Lay sheets against the surface unglued to plan seam placement and pattern flow.

Apply adhesive

Spread flexible adhesive evenly with a notched trowel across the substrate.

Set the sheet

Press MUREA into place starting from one edge, smoothing outward to avoid air pockets.

Roll for full contact

Use a J-roller across the full surface to bond the sheet completely.

Seal & finish

Apply MUREA Seal to protect the surface and enhance natural stone color.

Care & Maintenance

Keeping MUREA looking new

MUREA requires no special maintenance beyond what you’d give any natural stone surface. Clean with a soft cloth and pH-neutral cleaner — avoid abrasive pads and harsh acidic or alkaline chemicals.

For exterior and high-moisture installations, reapply MUREA Seal every 12–18 months to maintain water resistance.
