In most situations a typical starter strip is used to start the first course of
siding. Special circumstances (panel application around decking, special roof
lines and other unique applications) may require other techniques to secure
the first panel locking leg. This can be accomplished in several manners (as
illustrated in Fig. 1 & 2).
Anytime a J-Channel is used as a starter strip it must have a 3/16" diameter
hole drilled no greater than 24" on center to allow for water drainage.
