Now a fairly popular way is the laminate of the kitchen apron, but it should be borne in mind that some laminate models are quite short -lived, so high temperatures are poorly tolerated. Accordingly, they are not recommended to be used directly in the working area of \u200b\u200bthe stove. Try to finish in this zone with tiles.

   

2. Also often decorate the toilet with a laminateusually one wall. The fact is that this material is easily washed, while saving on the purchase of tiles.

Therefore, it makes sense only to install a laminate in warm rooms.

We recommend using adhesive material for the decor of the walls, it is quite simple to lay on the wall.

You just need to smear the glue with a thick layer of glue and attach, we recommend that you start work with the lower left corner. This greatly simplifies the situation. Please note that some manufacturers have used the trends in the use of laminate not for the floor, but for the wall. Therefore, certain series appeared on sale, which are precisely designed for wall decoration. They differ in their density, as well as resistance to some aggressive means. For example, they can be safely glued in the apron in the kitchen, while no moisture, as well as high temperature, is not terrible for them.
