NRP

and NRP-FR PANELS feature solid polymer construction. The front

side of most products is embossed to enhance durability. The rear surface

is treated to accept recommended water-based adhesives. NRP

standard panels are made with 100% PLAS-TEX

densified solid polymer.

NRP-FR panels feature a unique fire-rated composition.

FRP PANELS are made from high quality gelcoat over cured mineral-filled

polyester resin and random strand fiberglass matt.

ADHESIVES: Parkland™ Panel Adhesive and Spray-Lock™ aerosol

adhesive are strongly recommended with NRP

, NRP-FR & FRP installa-

tions. These instructions assume the use of these VOC-free materials.

Pay close attention to warnings regarding use of non-recommended

adhesives.

STORAGE AND CONDITION-

ING: Panels must be stored flat on

a smooth, dry surface. Before

installation, allow panels to come

to room temperature. Install

panels at the temperature typical

for the area after construction is

finished.

ALLOWING FOR MOVEMENT:

Panels expand and contract with

temperature changes. Space

panels 1/16” apart in all directions

as shown. Use FRP only for

structures subjected to extreme

temperature changes such as

trailer interiors.

SURFACE PREPARATION: Ensure that all walls and surfaces are flat,

clean, dry and solid. Remove all bumps, loose plaster, paint and dust. Fill

all low spots and voids. For use with recommended adhesives- seal all

walls and surfaces with primer and paint to improve surface integrity. For

non-recommended adhesives- use extreme caution and follow adhesive

manufacturer's instructions and test prior to use.

CUTTING & FITTING PANELS: NRP

panels can be scored and snapped

similar to drywall or cut with a utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. NRP and

FRP can be sawn, use a fine-toothed negative hook blade. Cut-outs, such

as for switches and inside corners should be drilled at the corners or cut

with a router to distribute stress- do not use a jigsaw for cutouts. Test the

panel fit by placing it in position without adhesive. Be careful to leave 1/16”

min. gap at all moldings, openings, fastener holes, terminations and panel

edges. Do not fit panels tightly. NRP panels contain no fiberglass irritant;

they may be handled safely with bare hands. For FRP panels, wear a dust

mask, gloves, and a long-sleeve shirt when handling.

SPRAY ADHESIVE APPLICATION: When using Spray-Lock adhesive,

follow directions on the can or our website. Be sure to allow adhesive to

tack prior to placement of panel on the wall. Mask areas not to be sprayed.

To re-position- pull the panel straight off the wall and re-apply. Roll

thoroughly with pressure roller to bond sheet into adhesive bed.

TROWEL ADHESIVE APPLICATION: For Sealed or non-porous

surfaces use Parkland Panel Adhesive and a 1/16” V- notched trowel, and

1/8” V-notched for porous surfaces. Apply Parkland Panel Adhesive

directly to the wall [except for concrete substrates- see note elsewhere in

this document]. Leave only ridges of adhesive. Roll panel thoroughly into

adhesive bed. Ensure panel moldings are fully bedded in adhesive.

Adhesive coverage (Parkland Panel Adhesive) is about 1/3 gallon per 4’ x

8’ panel with 1/16” trowel. Parkland Panel Adhesive and Spray-Lock

adhesive may be used over DensArmor Plus

and other non-porous,

primed, or painted surfaces with excellent results. Be sure to follow the

manufacturer’s instructions. For more information and videos on how

to install panels please visit our website.

PANEL MOLDINGS: Color-matched panel moldings are available for

most panels. They can be trimmed to size with a utility knife or metal

shears. Allow at least 1/16” in all directions for panel expansion.

ARCHITECTURAL MOLDINGS: EcoTUFF™ base, chair and crown

protective moldings can be secured with a minimum of two 2-1/2” # 10

screws spaced every 24” max., run through wall panels and a minimum of

1-1/2” into studs or blocking behind. Pre-drill all screw locations with a

3/16" pilot bit, and countersink with a 7/16" countersink bit.

CONCRETE SUBSTRATES: Use a 3/16” x 1/4” square-notched trowel to

apply Parkland Panel adhesive directly to the sheet back; be sure

moldings are bedded in adhesive. Apply sheet to wall per remaining

instructions.

FIXTURE INSTALLATION: Allow adhesive to set minimum 24 hours, until

panels are firmly bonded to wall prior to fixture installation.

SEALING NRP

PANELS: For a water-tight installation, a continuous

bead of Parkland EcoTUFF™ sealant must be run in all molding channels,

seams, and along all edges. Remove excess sealant per instructions

below.

CLEANING NRP

: After installation panels may be cleaned with

non-abrasive cleaners or soaps. For removing excess sealant or difficult

stains use Bostik

Hand Towel and Specialty Adhesive Remover. Parkland

Back Labels can be soaked off with penetrating oil such as WD-40.

PIN RIVETS: Panels can be installed using plastic pin rivets to further

secure panels to walls. Panels properly installed with Parkland Panel

Adhesive or Spray-Lock do not require mechanical fasteners. Pre-drill all

holes 1/8” oversize in the panel and check that panels & moldings are fully

bedded in adhesive, and then fasten pin rivets to wall. Approved patterns

are every 16” o.c., in one direction, both directions, or along one panel

edge.
