Installation Owner's manual
DO NOT force a panel to fit a bowed or curved surface as
it may break; furthermore, the resiliency of the panel can
break the adhesive bond to the mounting surface.
9. Dry fit the panel and make any necessary
adjustments.
Do not use oil-based cleaners, such as mineral spirits,
to clean the panel. The oil in the cleaner will prevent the
panel from adhering properly to the mounting surface.
Fumes Hazard
The fumes from the sealants and
solvents used by the installer can be
harmful if used in an unventilated room.
Always work in a well-ventilated area.
10. Remove the panel and clean the back with
denatured alcohol or another non oil-based
cleaning solvent.
11. Apply a 1/4 to 3/8” bead of adhesive to the tub
deck, as shown. Keep the bead approximately 1”
from the edge to prevent the adhesive from
pressing out from under the panel. Also apply an
“S” bead of adhesive, as shown. Follow the
adhesive manufacturers’ instructions and note all
ventilation and installation precautions.
12. Very carefully turn the panel over and place it onto
the tub deck. Make sure the panel is correctly
positioned. It is important to apply hand pressure
to the entire surface of the panel to bond it to the
mounting surface and then place weight on top of it
to hold it firmly in place.
