3. USE

Fitting and storage conditions: For the best result, the product will be fitted and stored in conditions close to those of final use (similar temperature and humidity). Fitting on a wet backing surface (fresh plaster) and in forced drying conditions (heat gun, dehumidifier, exceptionally high temperature) are to be ruled out.

Backing: The following backing surfaces are suitable: drywall, indoor plastered surfaces, coated plaster, cement, wood, etc. Surfaces must be clean, dry, free from dust, degreased and flat; rough down if necessary. If the product is to be applied to particular backing surfaces, please consult our technical department.

Adhesive and joints: StyroTrim® Adhesive FW. The optimum thickness of the glue is 1/8" (3.175 mm). Apply glue to the whole of the joints and surfaces to be glued. Leave a 1/8" (3.175 mm) joint filled with adhesive at each join. Like any adhesive, the adhesive compound is not used below 46°F (8°C), above 86°F (30°C) or in strong direct sunshine.

Surface work: StyroTrim® baseboards and chair rails can be painted, without any problem, with solvent-free paints (e.g.: dispersion paints, acrylic lacquers, etc.) If, however, you wish to apply a solvent paint, it is advisable to test it.

4. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
