Installation Instructions

2. Dry t the corner molding.

Fumes Hazard

The fumes from the silicone and solvents

used by the installer can be harmful if used

in an unventilated room. Always work in a well-ventilated

area. To keep the area well-ventilated, open windows and

use exhaust fans. If adequate ventilation is not achievable

or practical, use respiratory protective equipment.

3. Clean the surface of the panels and the back of the molding

with denatured alcohol or another non-oil based solvent.

Do not use oil-based cleaners, such as mineral spirits, to clean

the panels. The oil in the cleaner will prevent the panel from

adhering properly to the wall.

4. Apply a 1/8 to 1/4 inch bead of silicone to the back of the

corner molding in an S pattern, as shown.

5. Press the corner moldings into place. Remove any excess

silicone.

6. Place at least three pieces of masking tape on each corner

molding to hold it in place until the silicone adheres to the

wall panel.

Temporary Bracing

Install the temporary bracing to hold the wall panels in place

until the silicone sealant is completely set (usually 24 hours).

This will allow proper curing of the silicone.

To ensure contact between the panels and walls until the

silicone sealant sets, install the temporary bracing after

completing installation. The bracing should be constructed from

1 x 2 inch, 1 x 3 inch, and 2 x 2 inch lumber. Cut the boards to

length so that the braces wedge against the wall panels and/

or each other when installed. Failure to brace in the manner

described could keep the panels from properly adhering,

resulting in personal injury, as well as water damage or other

damage to oors, walls, or other portions of your building or

home.

1. Place three or more braces against the back wall. Place two

braces on the panels that are 48 inches or less and three or

four braces on the panels used on back walls greater than

48 inches wide.

To prevent scratches or other damage, make sure there are no

nails or other foreign objects in the surface of the bracing that

is placed against the panel. Also, to prevent possible damage

to the walls, do not apply excessive pressure to the braces. Do

not hammer (pound) braces in place or nail the braces together.
