Installation Instructions
• Read instructions thoroughly before attempting installation. • DO NOT remove protective liner from adhesive
strip on back side of Center Panel until final installation. • Package should be stored at room temperature (68°F-
min.) for at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to installation. • Turn off water supply to bathtub —Remove existing
control valve handle(s) cover plates and filler spout, if shower head is mounted less than 58” from top of bathtub —
it must be removed.
NOTE: Corner Panels must be installed first- the Center Panel overlaps the short leg of each Corner Panel.
• Trial fit all three (3) parts before applying construction adhesive or drilling any mounting holes.

IMPORTANT:
Measure bathtub alcove to find center
of backwall. Scribe a light grease pencil
line at this point (at least 59” above top
of bathtub). Measure and lightly mark
center on top edge of Center Panel. This
will position Center Panel with equal
overlaps on each Corner Panel. Re-
move any objects that protrude into bath-
tub alcove area below 59” such as soap
dishes or towel bars. See Fig. 1.

Accurately measure tub spout and
handle(s) hole location on alcove side
wall and transfer dimensions to appro-
priate Corner Panel. You may want to
make a template (use shipping carton)
to check hole layout before you cut
holes into Corner Panel. After you have
double checked your measurements,
using the proper size drill or hole saw,
cut out holes for outlets. See Fig. 2.
Note: Do all drilling from finished sur-
face, this will reduce the possibility
of surface damage.

PROCEDURE:
Set Corner Panels in place, resting bot-
tom edges on bathtub rim, temporarily
tape panels in place. Place Center
Panel against backwall, also resting bot-
tom edge on bathtub rim. Align previ-
ously marked center lines and check for
equal overlap on each Corner Panel.
Draw a light grease pencil line along top
edge of Center and Corner Panels -
this will be your reference when you per-
manently install panels. Remove panels
from alcove, remove masking tape and
clean top edges with mineral spirits to
remove any excess grease pencil. DO
NOT remove centerline mark from
Center Panel at this time. See Fig. 3.
