During the installation of my ceiling, some of the adhesive dried on the finish side
of my panels. How can I remove that?
If some of the adhesive has dried on the finish side of the panels, you can use mineral spirits to
remove it. This is the only solvent that can be used that will not damage the finish on the tile. It
is best to remove any excess adhesive immediately using a damp cloth. Allowing excess
adhesive to dry on the finished side of the panel may harm the finish.
Do I need to install regular acoustic panels behind the lay-in panels?
For 2 x 4 Fasade lay-in panels, if sag or lift is an issue, we recommend that the panels are
installed underneath a mineral board ceiling tile or some other material. You can use old mineral
board tiles or purchase an economical mineral board tile for this purpose. THIS IS NOT A
REQUIREMENT.
Can I nail-up the glue-up ceiling panels?
Yes, as long as you are using the glue-up ceiling tiles you are able to use finishing nails. We
recommend spacing the nails every 6 inches to avoid a ripple effect. Please note that the nails
will be more noticeable when used with certain styles and finishes.
Can I use the Fasade products in my camper or RV?
Yes, you can use on the interior of your camper and we recommend using method 2 of our
installation guide which states to use supplemental adhesive due to road vibrations and
temperature swings.
Do your products have a California Proposition 65 warning?
You may see a warning on this product regarding California’s Proposition 65, the Safe Drinking
Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. It is intended to help Californians make informed
decisions about protecting themselves from chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. The Proposition requires the state to maintain and update a list of
chemicals known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity.
Proposition 65 is designed to inform consumers. This is not the same as a regulatory decision
that a product is “safe” or “unsafe”. Our products emit no volatile organic compounds (VOC’s)
and are in no way harmful if the product is used for its intended purpose. At Acoustic Ceiling
