Panel Centered in each area where the tabs (horizontally overhanging bricks) from the next panel will
conceal the fastener.
Corners Centered in each area where the tabs (horizontally overhanging bricks) from the next panel will

For exterior projects, start with an “S” pattern of construction adhesive on the back of each Product. Adhesive is not
recommended for interior projects with a drywall substrate. Ensure the Product is level before fastening as outlined by
Product below. Next, feel throughout the face of the panel for any ex, if you notice any ex between the panel and
the substrate, eliminate the ex with a screw in the face of the Product. This fastener can be hidden under a brick and
concealed later with GenStone eXact Color caulking and paint. The last step before repeating the process is to run a
generous bead of eXact Color caulking tinted to match the mortar where the panels will meet. The caulking should
secrete out of the connection Wipe the caulking to make the seam disappear.

For exterior projects, start with an “S” pattern of construction adhesive on the back of each ledger. Adhesive is not
recommended for interior projects with a drywall substrate. Run a bead of GenStone Big Stretch white caulking in the
recessed niche of the ledger where it will connect to the panel. Ensure the ledger is level before fastening it with evenly
placed screws in the face of the ledger as shown below. After the ledger is secure, create a water tight connection to the
substrate where the ledger meets the wall by running a bead of GenSton Big Stretch or eXact Color caulking between the
wall and ledger. Running a generous bead of eXact Color caulking tinted to match the mortar where the ledgers meet is
recommended. Let the caulking secrete out of the connection and wipe even with the mortar.

After attaching a panel or corner, you may notice it is difcult to slide the next panel into place. To slide the next panel
or corner into place, simply loosen the fasteners slightly, slide the panel or corner into place and then tighten the
fastener again before sliding the panel or corner into its place.
