Install the tile covering up to where the profile
will be installed.
Apply a bead of adhesive to the underside
of the profile legs where contact is made
with the floor, and set the profile. Note: End
caps are used when the profile does not
abut a vertical surface. Install end caps with

adhesive before installing the profile.

to this area and to the back of the profile
to achieve full coverage. Press the profile
into the mortar until its surface is flush with
the tile.
Use a suitable cleaning agent to remove
any excess adhesive after placement of the
profile.
Set adjacent rows of tile, leaving a space
of approximately 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 - 3 mm)
between the profile and tile.
Cut the SHOWERPROFILE-WSL/-WSC
