final steps and tips

Step 1

Cut the damaged panel just above the center. Remove

the bottom section of the damaged panel. Do not re-

move remaining siding panel.

Step 2

Remove the top lock of the replacement panel as high

under the lock as possible. Remove any burrs or imper-

fections that may have occurred while cutting. Slip the

new piece of siding under the old lock. Open gap with a

at screwdriver if this lock is too tight.

Step 3

Apply adhesive caulk along the full length of the old

panel 1/2" to 3/4" under the old lock.

Step 4

Carefully install the new piece of siding over the top of

the caulk and into the old lock. Press the new panel into

caulk ensuring that it makes contact down the full width

of siding. Do not nail this panel into place. Use this

procedure for all replacements. Nail stainless steel trim

nails through weep hole to hold the panel in place.

CLEAN UP

Use a soft cloth or sponge with soap and water for clean up. Avoid rubbing too hard as this may cause dam-

age to the surface. Never use harsh abrasives. Mineral spirits may be used sparingly to remove grease or

asphalt stains.

JOB SITE

should be removed daily.
