INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Install over an unfinished, smooth, sound wall with moisture-curing, non-flammable latex adhesive using a notched trowel. When installing over a non-porous surface, such as a painted wall or ceramic tile, our proprietary SS-95 adhesive is strongly recommended. Precondition panels and moldings for 24 hours at the final temperature in the room to be applied. Allow 72 hours for adhesive to cure.
