Install Instructions
INSTALLATION OF INSIDE CORNER REINFORCEMENT (J).
1.1) Flashing Tape Corner Reinforcements go behind the
panels in the back vertical corners for added leak
protection. This tape has been cut to length, matching
the height of the panels of your kit.
1.2) Apply a generous bead of adhesive onto both walls
about 3/4 inch away from the corner. Fold the flashing
tape at the center crease with the print side together,
then press the tape into the corner using a taping or
putty type blade. Using the same blade, flatten out the
tape to create a flat, smooth inside corner. Wipe away
any excess adhesive.
2 INSTALLATION OF BACK WALL PANEL (A).
NOTE: It is not necessary to cut the top edges of panels to be level,
as they will be covered by trim moldings. For right-hand plumbing
wall installs, reverse Panels A and B in these instructions.
2.1) Each wall panel should be fit to the back corner, and to
the shower base. This may usually be done by
trimming either the vertical corner edge, or the edge
that rests on the base. In some circumstances you will
need to trim both to achieve a tight fit. Dry fit the
panel by trimming with a utility knife, jigsaw, or power
plane.
2.2) When satisfied with the fit, peel protective masking
back from the edges of the panel (approx. 4”) and
clean burs from any rough edges. Generously apply
Performance Pro Adhesive in lines or blobs to the back
of the panel in a pattern every 3 to 4 inches. Use
approximately one 10oz tube per 8 square feet
following adhesive directions on tube. Push the panel
in place, lightly pounding to achieve good bond.
3 INSTALLATION OF WET / PLUMBING WALL PANEL (B).
3.1) Hold side panel as close to plumbing wall as possible.
Scribe and trim the inside edge and bottom edge
against the shower base for best fit before measuring,
marking, and cutting holes for plumbing fixtures. The
depth of the side wall panels can also be trimmed down
to fit the opening or your shower base, although how
you decide to install vertical trims C and E will influence
the width sizing of side wall panels (see Section 4.)
