2. For final fit, remove backing
from pressure sensitive tape and
carefully position corner panel.
Press firmly to wall…moving hand
pressure up and down and side to
side, making sure all areas make
firm contact to wall.
3. BACK PANEL
TRIAL FIT: Apply the adhesive as
noted. Globs of adhesive should
be “piled” approximately 1/2 high
and 1 in diameter.
NOTE: Special attention should be
given to pressing the center of the
panels firmly against the wall to
insure adequate contact of the
tape and adhesive.
4. Carefully center back panel.
Allow the right and left top edges to
evenly overlap corner panels.
4A. IMPORTANT
Grout lines and top edge of back
panel should be aligned with grout
lines and top edge of side panels.
If tub has settled or is out of plumb
a gap between bottom edge of wall
and tub ledge may exist. This gap
can be filled in with caulking (see
