IMPORTANT INFO
• Clean and prep the installation surface and each slat of any debris with a clean cloth.
• It is highly recommended that you paint or stain the panels before installation.
• It is recommended to use quality and stain for all wood species.
• Make sure the surface and the back of the panel are completely dry before installation.
• Before installing, acclimate the wood slats in the room where you will be installing them.
• In most applications you will have to trim some panels. Cut them with a standard power
tool, such as a table saw or miter saw. Sand cut edge ends and clean away any debris.
• Depending on your installation method, use Loctite Power Grab adhesive and brad nails.
1. Prep and stain Slats before installing or use
quality stain for wood species other than
MDF. Touch up paint or stain as needed after
installation.
2. Smooth installation surface with sandpaper
by removing excessive bumps or texture.
Wipe wall clean to clear debris.
3. We recommend laying out the desired layout
before installation as these are completely
customizable and space is up to you. Mark
the installation points using a chalk line or
straight edge and level.
A.) For single panels, start at either the top
or bottom corner at the edge of the wall and
work towards the opposite corner (Diagram A).
B.) For 2-piece panel sets start at the center
and work out (Diagram B).
4. Apply a small amount of adhesive to the back
of the panel and secure with small brad nails.
(Follow adhesive manufacturer’s instructions for
proper application.)
5. Once the rst one is installed, repeat step 4
on the rest of the Slats
