Installation varies depending on application. Typically, support is required every 24in. Wet fabrication process must be used when cutting, routing, and finishing. Wear a dust mask and ensure there is proper ventilation to avoid potential hazards from silica dust. Refer to the Specification PDF for additional information
Recommended Adhesive
Use Wilsonart Hard Surface Adhesive for seam bonding. Pigmented knife grade adhesives are also acceptable. A mildew-resistant elastomeric sealant for filling gaps between countertops and terminating substrates is recommended in wet environment applications. For wall cladding applications, use 100% silicone when adhering to substrate.
Suitable Substrates
For wall cladding applications, use cement board (Durock or equivalent). The substrate surface must be sound, flat, smooth, and free of dust or other contaminates during installation. Sub-wall must be sound and able to support the weight of the material.
