6. Complete the Installation
NOTE:
Models with an integral apron are designed so the finished wall material [1-1/2
″
(3.8 cm)
maximum] will overlap the apron columns. The finished floor material [2
″
(5.1 cm) maximum] should butt
up against the apron.
Carefully remove the protective tape from the bath rim.
If necessary allow for deck mounted valves and spout.
Seal the joints between the bath rim edges and the water-resistant wall material with silicone
sealant. Tape and mud the water-resistant wall material.
Install the finished wall. Seal the joints between the bath rim and the finished wall with silicone
sealant.
Install the faucet trim according to the faucet manufacturer’s instructions.
Clean-Up Procedures
CAUTION: Risk of product damage.
Do not allow cleaners containing petroleum distillates to remain
in contact with the surface for long periods of time.
When cleaning up after installation,
do not use abrasive cleaners,
as they may scratch and dull the
bath surface. Use warm water and a liquid, non-abrasive detergent to clean the surface.
Remove stubborn stains, paint, or tar with turpentine or paint thinner. Remove plaster by scraping
with a wood edge. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, or other metal tools. You can use a
powder-type detergent on a damp cloth to provide mild abrasive action to any residual plaster.
