Preparation

It requires at least four people to assemble a Flex Plex screen. To maintain optimal image geometry and screen alignment, a flat and 
straight wall free from obstructions and angular distortions should be used. 

A wall opening with 5” + the ordered viewing height and 

5” + the ordered viewing width must be used to maintain the precise in-wall fit of the Flex Plex screen.

 When assembling the screen, 

choose a clean work area using padded material or other soft, clean materials. The work area should be larger than the overall screen 
size and directly in front of the wall opening where the screen is to be installed (audience side).

NOTE:

 Please read through the installation steps and note wait times. The rolled screen surface needs to be acclimated to the room for 

48 hours

 prior to installation (Step 1). Once the surface is unrolled it will need to lay in its unrolled state for 

4 hours

 

(Step 2).

Maintenance and Protection

Projection screens should always be installed after the 
completion of construction, drywall, and painting of all adjacent 
areas. If construction work needs to occur near an installed 
screen, clean polyethylene sheeting should be used to cover and 
protect both surfaces. 

Never apply adhesive tapes to the 

coated surface. 

Always be careful to guard the screen against 

damage from moving scaffolding, ladders, or staging materials.

General Cleaning

Never use solvents on or near Da-Lite rear projection screens. 
Remove dust by gently blotting the screen with a soft, clean, lint-
free cloth.

Dry Soil Marks

Clean with VM&P Naptha or with Da-Lite Lenskleen and a soft, 
clean, lint-free cloth.

Cleaning of Frame and Trim

The exposed surfaces of the aluminum frames can be cleaned 
with a dilute solution of detergent and water, followed by a clear 
water rinse. Use a soft, grit-free cloth to preserve the anodized 
finish. Protect screen surface during frame cleaning. Do not use 
abrasive cleaners or solvents.
