Installation Guide

Before glue-up, wipe all the sanded surfaces with a

clean cloth and denatured alcohol. Remove all dust and

let the surfaces dry completely.

8. Select the appropriate matching color acrylic

adhesive.

Before applying a two-part adhesive onto a Swanstone

component, always dispense some of the adhesive into

a waste container. Dispense enough adhesive to allow

complete mixing of the two-part adhesive in the

corkscrew design nozzle. Typically, freshly mixed

adhesive has a 10 minute working time when dispensed

onto components to be joined.

Note: The Swanstone acrylic adhesive has a working

time of 10 minutes and a cure time of one hour. Gather

all the tools needed before beginning glue-up.

9. Pre-drill the sink alignment screw holes.

a. Place the sink on the underside of the

countertop. Make sure the overflow drain is

toward the front edge of the countertop.

b. Use the VW 0050-000 special drill bit to drill two

pilot holes into the underside of the countertop,

through two of the sink rim openings, 180

degrees apart.

c. Remove the sink and use compressed air and

denatured alcohol with a clean cloth to remove

all dust and debris from the holes, sink rim, and

vanity surface.

10. Dispense several beads of the appropriate color-

match acrylic adhesive onto the sanded surface of

the countertop, using the pencil outline of the sink as

a guide.

11. Use a spread stick to smooth out the adhesive. The

adhesive should be just thick enough to hide the

countertop surface underneath.

Note: Wear protective disposable gloves when working

with the two-part acrylic adhesive. Remove excess

acrylic adhesive with a flat blade putty knife. Clean up

excessive acrylic adhesive with denatured alcohol and a

clean cloth.

Note: Adhesive that is spread too thick will not produce

a proper joint. Adhesive that is spread too thin can

result in gaps in the joint and a weak bond.
