TOOLS REQUIRED

TO INSTALL

Tools needed are a carbide tip

saber saw, drill, ruler, level,

masking tape, and caulking gun.

For best results and extended

tool life, we recommend profes-

sional or industrial rated power

tools. All routing and cutting

tools should have a minimum

rating of 10 AMPS.

CUTTING AND ROUTING

TOOLS

Dependent on the type of cut or

edge detail required, one or

more of the following tools may

be required.

• Circular saw: Minimum 40-

tooth carbide blade (triple chip

grind, 60-tooth will give a

smooth, clean cut)

• Portable power plane with car-

bide blades or cutter heads.

• Saber Saw (straight up/down

blade travel). Fine plywood

carbide blade or blade with no

tooth over-hang (14 teeth per

inch)

• Miter saw

IMPORTANT

If you are installing the TK-6072

bathtub wall panel trim kit over a

Swanstone SS-60 bathtub wall

panel unit, trimming of the center

soap dish panel will be required.

You must follow the procedure

shown in step #3.

1. VERTICAL TRIM STRIP

Select any two of the trim strips. A 45⬚ mitered cut is recommended

for seaming the vertical and horizontal strips. The outside, or long,

measurement of the vertical trim strip should be approximately 7/8⬙

greater than the vertical measurement of the wall panel. Set each ver-

tical trim strip into position. The most desirable placement will line up

the front edge of the trim strip with the front edge of the bathtub or

shower floor. Trial fit all pieces before final application.

TRIAL FIT BEFORE YOU START

2. VERTICAL FIT

For a proper vertical fit, check

with a level. Temporarily secure

trim strip to the wall with mask-

ing tape. Mark the location of the

vertical trim strips with “tick”

marks. These “tick” marks will be

used for final fit.

3. IMPORTANT

If you are installing the TK-6072

bathtub wall panel trim kit over a

Swanstone SS-60 bathtub wall

panel unit, it will be necessary to

trim the center soap dish panel.

Using the proper cutting tools

(see Cutting and Routing Tools),

measure and trim as needed.
