Retrofit / pre-skimmed plasterboard

Feathered skim finish

BackboxCV alignment required for plastering

Using a 2-3mm shim set (contact your Amina 
supplier) between the back of the speaker 
and the speaker mounting lip      , the front 
face of the speaker should be flush with the 
front face of the existing painted/plastered 
wall/ceiling.

This method positions the speaker so that a 
much larger area around it (approx. 1m

 

(39”)) can be skimmed. This 2mm (5/64”) 
thick skim is then feathered outward at the 
edges and blended into the existing 
wall/ceiling finish.
