1.

Measure and cut the corner moldings to length.

2.

Dry fit the corner molding.

Fumes Hazard
The fumes from the silicone and solvents
used by the installer can be harmful if used in

an unventilated room. Always work in a well-ventilated
area. To keep the area well-ventilated, open windows and
use exhaust fans. If adequate ventilation is not achievable
or practical, use respiratory protective equipment.

3.

Clean the surface of the panels and the back of the
molding with denatured alcohol or another non-oil based
solvent.

Do not use oil-based cleaners, such as mineral spirits, to
clean the panels. The oil in the cleaner will prevent the panel
from adhering properly to the wall.

4.

Apply a 1/8 to 1/4” bead of silicone to the back of the
corner molding in an S pattern, as shown.

5.

Press the corner moldings into place. Remove any
excess silicone.

6.

Place at least three pieces of masking tape on each
corner molding to hold it in place until the silicone adheres
to the wall panel.

Final Caulking

Apply a bead of the color-matched 100% silicone sealant and
white silicone sealant (included in the kit).

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the tube for proper
application. Allow at least 24 hours for silicone to set before
using the shower enclosure.
