Which substrate is suitable for mounting a wall cladding?

In order to fasten the wooden straps safely and permanently, the substrate must meet the following requirements:

stable, lasts dry, clean, fat-free, smooth

Suitable substrates would be, for example:

• various wood-based panels (for example MDF)
• plywood
• Concrete
• Plasterboard
• Renovation fleece...

Even on difficult surfaces such as a galvanized steel plate is the application of wodewa wall covering with a suitable adhesive like Wakol MS262 possible. It is important to ensure that the steel plate is cleaned and degreased beforehand.

Primer
The surface should not be primed or painted with emulsion paint as this may affect the durability of the adhesive on the wall. The attachment of the strips on surfaces such as wallpaper or regular tiles is associated with some special features, which you will learn in the rest of the FAQ.
