Installation Guide
Once the corner insert(s) are installed, measure the width of your wall (corner to corner) in order to determine the dimension of the back panel. Should you
need to make an adjustment (ie: panel’s width = 60", while your wall’s width = 58", you then have an exceeding of 2" – for which we recommend that you
take off 1" on each side of the panel), install back panel on a clean and flat surface (the little ceramic band upwards). To cut the panel, you must first draw a
line on each side of the panel. In order to insure a straight cut and to avoid sliding the utility knife off the line, apply masking tape (about 2" wide) along
your reference lines. Put a ruler on top of masking tape and with the help of a utility knife apply pressure and slide along the reference line. ATTENTION:
Do not score panel on the part that you will keep. Once the cut is completed, take a plank of approximately ½" deep by 3" – 4", wide by 5 foot long and
place the plank under the back panel, along the cut, and with your palm, press firmly starting at the top and working your way down the panel in order to
snap apart. Do the same for the side panel(s) if need be. Place the back panel on the rim of the bathtub (above the corner insert(s)) to validate the
dimensions.
Remove the panel and apply the adhesive in the same manner as written above for the corner insert(s) (Fig. 2 + 3), but using a 3/8" v-notch
trowel. Proceed in the same way for the side panel(s) (Fig. 3 + 4). Maintain panels in place with masking tape while adhesive dries (Fig. 5). Allow adhesive
to
dry 24 hours before applying caulk beads to all edges and joints (Fig. 6). Follow caulk manufacturers' recommended cure time.
