9) Adhere the plank to the wall leaving a 3/16" gap (A) from the corners of the wall and a 1"
gap (B) at bottom. Drive brad nails 1/2" from the top and bottom of each plank to secure
to wall. Place nails where the trim will cover.
10) Continue with the installation for each subsequent plank by first applying silicone
adhesive to the back side of the plank in an ā€œSā€ pattern. Then angle the groove over the
tongue of the previous plank and wiggle into place. Tighten joints as needed with a
tapping block or pull bar. Finally, drive brad nails 1/2" from the top and bottom of each
plank to secure to wall. Place nails where the trim will cover. Be sure to drive the brad
nails into a stud whenever possible. (Figure 4)
