Once you have determined your ideal layout, we suggest beginning 
by working from the bottom-left of the wall or surface you will be 
covering. For these instructions, we will assume you are covering a 
wall and will proceed from the bottom left. Apply mastic adhesive 
to the wall a couple of rows at a time if you are using it, if not 
proceed with nailing the planks to the wall.

Finishing and Corner Treatment
Lap Joint
Cut the planks with square 
edges (chop saw) longer 
than the length needed 
(the thickness of the plank) 
for the proud face.

45° Angle Joint
Prior to securing adjoining 
planks to the wall when 
you reach a corner, make 
your 45° angle cut on the 
joining end of the plank.
The face of the plank will 
be longer than the inside 
surface of the plank.
If you are covering a 
surface with a corner you 
have a choice on how 
these two surfaces will 
meet:
-45° angle joint
-Lap joint
Staining
We think these are beautiful as-is. 
However, you may choose to add 
color to the planks either before or 
after installation.
Sealing
There is no need to apply sealant to 
your planks. This material is at least 
100 years old and has withstood 
the test of time. Wood needs to 
breathe. If you do seal the planks we 
suggest a water-based clear matte 
polyurethane.
