CAUTION: Do not pull or stretch 
InstaTrim while you work as this 
may cause the ends to peel back.
Trim the finished end of the strip 
using a scissors or razor blade. 
NOTE: For splicing two pieces, 
see instructions on reverse side.
Gently press InstaTrim into the gap 
every 4”-6”. Firmly press the strip 
into place again to ensure 
adhesion. 
Peel back the liner. 
IMPORTANT TIPS
• Remove all traces of old silicone caulk 
before applying InstaTrim. Please 
follow instructions on reverse side.
• Use InstaTrim at room temperature.
• Avoid stretching InstaTrim as you 
work to avoid the ends from 
peeling back.
• Adding an extra 1/8” before cutting 
will ensure a tight fit.
• A small dab of permanent glue may 
help to adhere spliced ends where 
adhesive has been cut away.

Remove old caulk, grout or loose debris from the surface.
Wipe down the area with a damp cloth. 
Let the surface dry completely. 
CAUTION: If replacing silicone caulk, be sure to follow instructions 
on reverse side, “REMOVING OLD SILICONE”
REMOVING OLD SILICONE  
InstaTrim will not adhere to leftover 
silicone residue.
Using a sharp blade, cut and remove 
existing silicone caulk.
Use acetone or silicone remover with 
a wire brush to remove stubborn 
silicone oils and residue. 
CAUTION: Use ventilation in 
enclosed areas with any solvent 
cleaning solution.
Thoroughly wipe surface with 
silicone remover again to remove 
any remaining residue. 
SPLICING TWO ENDS
Cut the finish end of the 
1st strip at a 45º angle. 
Optional: Apply a small dab of 
permanent glue where the 
adhesive has been cut away.
Cut the beginning end of the 2nd strip at a 45º angle 
in the opposite direction so the ends will overlap and 
create a smooth transition between the strips.
