PANEL INSTALLATION:

1.Apply a 1/4" bead of silicone to each side of corner(s). Place corner pieces into corners and secure with props and/or braces and/or hot melt glue. Shim corner pieces 1/16" to 1/8" up from tub or shower base. Let dry. See Figs. 4 & 5.

2.Dry-fit the back panel to the back wall, centering the panel between the two corner pieces. You should have the same gap between the corner and the panel on both sides. See Fig. 6.

Remember to shim the panel up from fixture. With the panel in place, trace a line across the top edge to serve as a guide for alignment and silicone application. Repeat this process for remaining wall(s).

Bond one panel at a time. Apply silicone onto the premarked wall to within 1/2" of the pencil lines.

Apply a 1/4" bead of silicone sealant 3/8" from edge of the backside of the panel. Install the back panel and secure in place with props and/or braces and/or hot melt glue. Wipe excess sealant with a damp cloth.

Repeat this procedure until all panels are installed. See Fig. 6.
