Installation Instructions

Tools Typically Required:
Utility knife, caulking gun
Safety Precautions:
Interior applications require ventilation to the outside during application and cure. Wear gloves. Wash hands after use.
Preparation:
The temperature of the product, the surfaces and the working area must be above 40°F (4°C) and below 100°F (38°C). For best
performance, apply adhesive at 70°F (21°C). Ensure surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, structurally sound and free of dust,
grease, oil, and other foreign contaminants. Pre-cut and fit materials before applying adhesive. Cut off tip of cartridge in an X
cutting method, cutting both sides of the nozzle. Puncture inside seal of cartridge.
Application:
Using a caulking gun, apply a continuous bead of adhesive to all furring strips, studs and top and bottom plates. Position pre-fitted
panels. Follow the nailing schedule for adhesives nail-on attachment per the Gypsum Association Manual. If installing panels to
drywall, apply adhesive in a zigzag pattern within 1 inch of vertical edges on each side and two vertical beads in the panel center,
16 apart. Use mechanical fasteners at top and bottom to hold panel in place. Warped or bowed panels should not be used.
Clean-up:
Clean tools and uncured adhesive residue immediately with warm water and soap. Cured adhesive may be carefully cut away with a
sharp edged tool.
