Installation Instructions
ATTENTION:
LuxCore PANELS MUST BE ACCLIMATIZED FOR 24
HOURS BEFORE INSTALLATION
PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
The guidelines provided herein have been established in good faith to help
prevent installation problems. Advanced Technology Inc. believes all
information contained herein to be correct. It is the responsibility of the
fabricator/customer to completely test the adhesives and methods of
fabrication to ensure that the results are satisfactory. Failure to comply
with the following instructions, as well as the adhesive manufacturers’
instructions, may result in significant installation problems. ATI is not
responsible for any fabrication or ancillary costs involved with using
LuxCore products.
INSPECTION
Please inspect LuxCore panels for any imperfections prior to installing; once
installed, panels may be very difficult to remove.
TOOLS REQUIRED
In order to cut LuxCore panels most effectively, a fine-tooth saw blade is
recommended. Swivel-head shears may be utilized for small cutouts or trims. For
pre-drilled fastener holes, a diamond-coated or carbide drill bit is recommended. If
the installation requires adhesive, it is recommended to utilize the trowel with the
notch pattern suggested by the adhesive manufacturer, since, the trowel used to
apply the adhesive can have a great effect on the success or failure of the
installation.
PANEL TRIMMING
If not using trim strips, it is recommended that the edges be properly trimmed with a
router. This will mitigate showing “white lines” from the factory edges of the panel.
A commercial high speed router using a Bosch 3/8” Laminate Trim Bit with ball
bearing, carbide tip, and roller tip (when appropriate) is recommended.
MATERIALS REQUIRED
LuxCore Panels
FRP formulated adhesive.
