Soft Stone with Smooth Waterborne Coating Lightweight Flexible Stone Panels

◇◇ Flexible Stone Production Process ◇◇

1. Material Preparation & Mixing

Stone powder is uniformly blended with binding agents to form a homogeneous composite material, providing consistent quality and optimal flexibility.

2. Backing Reinforcement

The mixed compound is evenly spread onto a fiberglass mesh backing, which serves as a supportive substrate to improve both tensile strength and pliability.

4. Controlled Drying Phase

The pressed sheets undergo a natural drying cycle under regulated conditions, allowing the material to achieve structural stability while preserving its flexible characteristics.

5. Final Processing & Packaging

Once fully cured, the flexible stone is rolled, trimmed to specified measurements, and carefully packaged to ensure convenient handling, storage, and installation readiness.

◇◇ Flexible Stone Installation Process ◇◇

1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the installation surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Check for evenness to avoid any irregularities during application.

2. Pre-heating Flexible Stone: Before applying adhesive, use a heat gun to gently warm the back of the Flexible Stone. This step softens the material, enhancing its flexibility and ensuring better adherence to uneven or curved surfaces.

3. Applying Adhesive: Evenly spread the adhesive across the back of the Flexible Stone using a trowel or applicator. Make sure the adhesive covers the entire surface for a strong bond.

4. Positioning and Fixing: Carefully place the Flexible Stone onto the prepared surface, aligning it as needed. Press firmly to ensure proper adhesion. For larger panels, work in sections to maintain accuracy.

5. Trimming and Adjustments: Use a utility knife to trim edges or adjust shapes if necessary. Ensure all seams are aligned for a seamless finish.

6. Curing and Finishing: Allow the adhesive to cure completely as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Once dry, inspect the installation and clean any residue for a polished appearance.
