Day 1

1. If you are installing a kit with Design Strips, the panels will need to fit in a Horizontal position

and be cut accordingly.

2. If you are installing a kit without Design Strips, the panels will need to fit in a Vertical position.

3. When cutting the panels, they should be supported on a rigid horizontal surface or cutting table.

The panels should be placed design side up to prevent damage to the design.

4. Use a measuring tape to measure panels to fit the wall you are covering. Prior to cutting, apply

blue painters’ tape along the edge, you will be cutting, in order to minimize any fraying that

could occur. Prior to cutting, apply the blue painter’s tape to protect the face of the panel from

getting scratched or damaged. Use your circular saw or jigsaw to cut panels to size to include

plumbing cut outs and niche shelf cut outs. You will use your core bit for the plumbing cut outs.

5. Locate the Two-part internal trim. Use a measuring tape to measure the length of the two part

trim so that it fits the height you are covering. Cut the trim to the measurement using a fine-

tooth blade. Remove the face of the trim from the internal trim base Part 1.

6. Apply adhesive along the backside of Part 1 of the inside corner trim base. Fit to corner

beginning at the bottom of the corner and working your way up. Repeat with additional corners

and Inside Corner trim. In order to continue working on the project efficiently, tack this into

place while it is drying, you may use a staple gun or tack nail.

7. Using a tape measure, mark the panels to the correct length or height you are covering.

Remember, if you are installing a design strip, the panels will be installed and need to be cut to

fit horizontally. If you are not installing a design strip, the panels will be installed and need to be

cut to fit vertically. Dry fit your panels to ensure they are cut to fit into the Internal Corner trim

channels.
