Installation Guide

Do not use oil-based cleaners, such as mineral spirits, to
clean the panels. The oil in the cleaner will prevent the
panel from properly adhering to the wall.
3. Apply the silicone adhesive in 1-1/4 inch diameter
dots every 8 to 10 inches over the back surface of
the panel. Follow the silicone manufacturer’s
instructions and note all ventilation and installation
precautions.
4. Install the back panel, overlapping the corner side
panels. Carefully line up any faux grout lines.
Press the back panel firmly to the wall. Use even
hand pressure from top to bottom and side-to-side to
ensure solid wall contact.
Note: Any gaps between the bottom of the panels and
tub ledge will be filled in with caulking in a later step.
Refer to the Temporary Bracing section for information on
bracing to hold the panels in place until the silicone
adhesive is completely set (usually 24 hours). This will
allow proper curing of the silicone.
5. Install the temporary bracing to hold the wall panels
in place until the silicone adhesive cures.
6. After the temporary bracing is removed, refer to the
Caulking section for information on applying color
coordinated caulk to joints and seams.
