Surface Preparation
Surfaces must be clean, dry and structurally sound.
Panel And Drywall Application
Apply a 1/4" (.64cm) continuous bead of adhesive to all studs, plates or furring strips to be contacted by the panel. When bonding panels to existing walls, apply continuous beads of adhesive 12" (30cm) apart to back of each panel. Push panels firmly into place and adjust. Panels should be in position within 15 minutes of adhesive application. Panels may require two finishing nails at top and bottom in areas that will be covered by molding. After panel is in place, tap lightly with a padded block and hammer to ensure complete contact.
Cleanup
Use water for wet adhesive.
