8 INSTALLATION OF CORNER SHELF (I).
NOTE: Corner shelf includes a folding-triangle metal bracket with
screw holes which is designed to mount directly to the FlexStone wall
panels. Be sure to peel away protective masking from the installation
area before securing the bracket.
8.1) Position corner shelf bracket in desired corner at
desired height. Use a level to mark level lines in
pencil. Adjust alignment to include a slight forward
slope for water runoff.
8.2) Using drywall screws or other coarse-thread
screws, fasten each side of the bracket through
the FlexStone panels and the sheetrock.
8.3) Fold bracket and complete triangle by bending the
tab over to secure bracket. Dry fit the corner shelf
material over the bracket. If corner is out of
square, trim one side of shelf to achieve a tight fit.
8.4) Peel back protective masking from edges of shelf,
apply adhesive to top and bottom of bracket and
place FlexStone material over bracket like a
clamshell. Clamp until dry (24 hours).
9 SEALING WITH SILICONE
9.1) If you desire to paint the walls now or in the future,
use paintable latex caulk where trim moldings
meet sheetrock. Use wet finger or caulk tool to
shape the latex caulk to a nice finish.
9.2) Using denatured alcohol, clean and prime all joints
in the surround, including vertical and horizontal
joints where panel meets tub, panel meets panel,
or trim meets panel. Clean any oils, greases, or
adhesive residues from these joints.
9.3) Seal all joints in your surround with 100% silicone.
Our installation kit has color-matched translucent
silicone, tinted to complement your selected
FlexStone color. As an alternative, use plain
translucent, although the color will not match as
well. Apply a fine bead of silicone to all joints. Use
wet finger or caulk tool to shape the silicone to a
nice finish. Follow any directions on sealant tube.
PLEASE WAIT 24 HOURS BEFORE INSTALLING FINISH PLUMBING OR USING YOUR NEW
TUB/SHOWER SURROUND. REMOVE REMAINING PROTECTIVE MASKING PRIOR TO USE.
