NOTICE:

We recommend that tub/shower compartments be equipped with support Grab Bars that comply with ANSI-117.1 - 1986

requirements. Grab Bars must be anchored to structural support behind panels. Do Not rely on panels only for grab bar

support.

PREPARATION:

We do not recommend installing the Durawall Bathtub Wall Panels over any existing tile surfaces.

The Durawall Bathtub Wall may be installed over drywall, plaster, painted walls, plywood, or any solid wall- not open

studs. Wall surfaces must be clean, dry and free of grease, dust and loose or flakey paint or plaster. Shiny smooth surfaces

should be sanded or scratched to insure a positive bond. It is recommended that raw plaster or new wallboard not be

primed or watersealed prior to installation, some primers have a wax filler that will reduce the strength of the adhesive.

CARE AND CLEANING

The surface of your Durawall Bathtub Wall may

be cleaned with a mild soap solution in warm

water using a soft cloth. For stubborn stains use

“Soft -Scrub” by Clorox or Lysol “Tub & Tile

Cleaner” or a powdered detergent such as “Spic-

n-Span”. Never use abrasive scouring powder

or steel wool pads as they will scratch the sur-

face. A periodic coating of a silicone based ma-

rine polish will help retain the fine finish.

Warning:

Do not use spray-on cleaners that require daily

use without immediately rinsing to stop chemical

reaction. Damage will result and void warranty.
