GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
Storage and Handling
Store polyurethane millwork on a flat, level surface away from extreme heat
If the millwork is exposed to extreme heat, it should be acclimated to the
installation area’s temperature for 10 to 24 hours
Repair dents or gashes with wood filler or automotive putty (recommended).
Rejoin broken pieces with PL Premium Polyurethane Construction Adhesive
(or equivalent)
Fastening Guidelines
Control inevitable expansion and contraction with noncorrosive finish nails or
screws and by applying PL Premium Polyurethane Construction Adhesive at
each connection point and joint
A power nail gun, adjusted to avoid over-driving the fasteners into the material,
works well with Focal Point products (not to exceed 95 PSI)
Finishing
For best results, paint Focal Point products with a good quality exterior latex
paint. Focal Point products are factory primed so one coat of finish paint is
typically sufficient
Focal Point products can also be stained using a “gel” stain or can be
faux finished
See the Focal Point catalog for prefinished product options
Remove dirt, grime or other foreign substances from the product surface prior
to painting
Product Application
Focal Point products are designed to be used for decorative purposes only unless
otherwise noted. (Railing Systems, Columns, etc., do have structural integrity)
Focal Point products can withstand temperatures up to approximately 140
degrees Fahrenheit. Avoid installation in areas that are subject to solar
temperature buildup
Focal Point products will withstand exterior elements if properly finished.
Unpainted surfaces will be yellowish in color, and should be patched with
putty, covered with caulk or painted during installation
