B22 ProPanel Installation Guide
Mark intended location of each B22
ProPanel on the wall or ceiling.
Start the B22 ProPanel 5/8” above its intended
final height and press downward at a 45° angle until the panel is flush with the wall surface.
Install four impaling clips within marked B22
ProPanel location using drywall screws. Exact placement of each clip is not necessary.
For permanent mounting, apply Tubetak Pro adhesive to the back of the B22 ProPanel before completing Step 3.
Always use Tubetak Pro on the back of the panel when attaching it to the ceiling.
CT45 Bass Trap Installation Guide
16.75”
TIP
Mark a vertical line 16.75” from the intended
placement corner on both sides.
While continuing to hold panel in place, install
one finish nail though the fabric face and the hardened edge of the CT45. Make sure finish nail is installed perpendicular to the wall surface. Repeat in each of the four corners.
Hold CT45 Bass Trap in corner with edges
aligned to the marked vertical lines.
Using a nail set or other finish nail, carefully
countersink installed nail so its head goes through the fabric surface of the CT45 but not through the hardened edge.
Once finish nail has been countersunk into the
panel, there may be a small hole remaining in the fabric covering. Simply scrape the fabric in this area with your fingernail and the hole will completely disappear.
When using lighter colored fabrics, make sure your hands are clean!
