1. Install the baseboard with construction adhesive and/or nishing nails.
Make sure the gap on the baseboard is upright and facing the wall so
the wainscot panels can slide into it.
2. Each wainscot center panel will have a reveal that slides into the
baseboard gap and locks the panel(s) in place.
3. Glue and/or nail the panels in place.
4. For designs that require two center panels to achieve the overall height,
stack the second panel on top of the rst panel with the second panel’s
reveal able to accommodate the gap in the chair rail that will lock the
entire system in place.
5. Install the chair rail with the gap facing the wall and locking the panels
in place.
6. Finish with caulking and paint.
