Application guide

Kitchens

Material warmth, thoughtfully placed.

The approach

Start with
the surface.

Give your kitchen a connected, characterful finish—from island bases and cabinet fronts to surrounding walls. MicroMineral brings mineral depth to the heart of your home. We’ll help you plan each surface, including the specific requirements around water, heat and everyday use.

Before you apply

  • Separate decorative areas from wet, hot and food-contact zones.
  • Remove grease and assess the existing finish and base.
  • Detail joints around sinks, appliances and adjoining materials.
  • Request written suitability for proposed splashbacks or worktops.

A considered sequence

Map the exposures

Choose each area's system according to its actual use.

Prepare each base

Treat joinery, plaster and existing paint with the appropriate preparation.

Apply the agreed finish

Use the sample to coordinate texture and color where surfaces meet.

Protect and hand over

Follow approved curing and protection instructions and retain the cleaning guide.

This is a project-planning guide, not a product technical specification. Confirm the exact products, quantities, layer thicknesses, drying times and safety instructions before application.

Details that matter

  • Using decorative finish as waterproofing
  • Unapproved coating next to heat
  • Unsealed transitions at water-sensitive bases

Care for the finish

Remove spills promptly and use approved cleaners. Avoid abrasive pads, concentrated degreasers and direct heat unless specifically permitted.

Questions about kitchens

Can it go on a worktop?

Only with explicit approval for the entire system and expected exposure, including food contact where relevant.

Can it go behind a sink or hob?

Check water and heat suitability, joints and protection first. Appearance alone does not establish performance.
