Instructions / Assembly

SAWING/CUTTING
Use standard woodworking equipment for
most applications.
If using a power miter saw, a carbide-toothed
blade with 80 teeth or more is recommended.
NAILING
Use 6d and 8d galvanized nails.
Pre-drilling is required at temperatures of 40˚F
or below.
Royal Moulding can also be installed using a pneumatic nailer, with
stainless steel or painted head screws or with construction-grade adhesives.
GLUING
Temperature variations will cause PVC mouldings
to expand and contract. To prevent open miter
joints, we highly recommend gluing all joints on
PVC mouldings using a quality instant glue, PVC
cement or OSI TeQ Bond.
When assembling, splice and return miters by gluing the mouldings
together before installation. This will allow you to fit the joints easily,
and fasten the trim to the wall as one unit.
• Always test adhesive brands before using.
PAINTING
Royal Mouldings require no painting for
protection, but can be painted with 100%
acrylic latex paint to achieve custom colors.
(Scuff sanding will optimize paint adhesion, but is
not required. A second coat may be needed to achieve desired color.)
To maintain warranty for custom colors in darker shades, use
heat-reflective paint with VinylSafe
Technology from Sherwin-Williams.
(Dark colors are considered any color that falls within the lightness (L)
value of 56 to 0, with 100 being white and 0 being black.)
NOTE: We do not recommend painting the flex of Garage Door Stop
TOUCHUP FOR EXTERIOR MOULDINGS
Dap® “All Purpose” Painter’s Putty®
Minwax High Performance Wood Fille
Elmer’s Fill-N-Finish Light Wood Filler®
Sherwin Williams Shrink Free Spackling®
After installation is complete, caulk and/or putty all gaps and nail holes.
CLEANING
Royal Moulding can be cleaned using any of the
recommended household cleaners listed below;
however, glass cleaner has been shown to be
best at keeping the finish intact.
Recommended cleaners: See list in FAQs.
Apply the cleaning solution and immediately wipe dry for best results.
Avoid harsh cleaners with glycol ethers, ethanol type solvents
and/or isopropyl alcohol as they can soften the PVC finish if left on
for several minutes.
