Instructions / Assembly

General Information
When you install urethane millwork outdoors, always
use non-corrosive nails or screws.
Never install urethane millwork where it will be
subjected to extreme solar temperature build-up,
such as behind a storm door or near a solar collector.
Urethane millwork should be used for decorative
purposes only. It should not be used to provide
structural support unless otherwise specifi ed.
Urethane millwork is easy to repair. Use automotive
body fi ller or an exterior-grade plastic wood fi ller to
fi ll dents or gashes of any size. Broken mouldings
can be rejoined using urethane base adhesive.
After you countersink fasteners on the facings of
your millwork, use spackle, plastic wood fi ller, or
latex caulk to fi ll the holes. Sand the fi lled area, wipe
clean and touch up with paint.
Fypon products are factory primed. Because
the primer coating will not withstand long term
exterior exposure, painting of the product with an
exterior-grade latex paint is required.
To minimize the effects of expansion and
contraction, always apply an even bead of
urethane based adhesive to all contact points,
including joined ends, then face-nail or screw
millwork in place before adhesive sets up.
For a professional look, exposed joints or cuts should
be fi lled with caulk or fi ller and painted.
Storage
Urethane millwork should be stored in cool, shaded areas.
Millwork that has been stored in a hot place should be allowed
to acclimate to installation area. Due to the high insulating
value of urethane, this may take up to 10 hours.
Complete Installation Instructions
These guidelines are for quick reference and do not replace
the need for full installation Instructions. Please see the fol-
lowing pages or visit the Support section at Fypon.com for
installation instructions.
Painting
Fypon products are factory primed. Because the primer coat-
ing will not withstand long term exterior exposure, painting of
the product with a good quality, exterior grade latex paint
is required. Exterior exposures of the primer coating may
result in peeling, cracking or chalking of product. Follow the
paint manufacturer’s recommendations for surface preparation
and paint application.
Important: Due to variations in customer handling and meth-
ods of application which are not known or under our control,
Fypon does not warranty or take responsibility for exterior
paint performance.
Staining Woodgrain Products
Use a natural bristle brush and any non-penetrating stain. Ap-
ply the stain in a circular motion, then dry brush to create the
desired fi nal appearance. For a darker fi nish, apply a heavier
coat of stain with light pressure. For a lighter fi nish, apply a
thinner coat of stain with more pressure. For exterior ap-
plications, use a low gloss, exterior-grade clear top coat with
ultraviolet (UV) stabilizers after applying stain.
