instruction, this procedure will
address an application over a
bathtub or shower floor using a
Swanstone wall panel. It may
also be installed by itself or
with other wall materials.

If you have selected a
Swanstone solid surface wall
panel to complement this
application, install the molding
and rosettes first. Prior to
installing the moldings and
rosettes, keep in mind the size
limits of the wall that you are
installing. After you have
installed the molding and
rosettes, follow the installation
instructions provided in the
wall kit.

When installing the side walls,
be aware that it will be neces­sary to "notch" the side wall
panels around the ro s e t t e s .
Take these measurements into
consideration prior to final fit
of the side wall panels.

THRESHOLD ROSETTES

1. Choose the rosette design

pattern that you wish and
apply a glob of adhesive to the
opposite side of the design
that you select. The most
desirable placement will line
up the front edge of the rosette
with the front edge of the bath­tub or shower floor threshold.
Follow this procedure for the
application of both threshold
rosettes.

VERTICAL MOLDING &
ROSETTES

Select two of the molding
pieces. Measure and cut to fit
the vertical application.
Remember that a rosette piece
will be positioned above the
molding piece. Take this into
consideration prior to measur­ing and cutting.

TRIAL FIT

Check with a level. Note that the molding pieces are slightly nar­rower than the rosettes. Therefore, the molding pieces should be
centered over the bathtub or shower floor threshold rosette. Mark
the location of the vertical molding with "tick" marks. These
"tick" marks will be used for final fit. Temporarily secure the mold­ing to the wall with masking tape. Select the molding design you
wish and the rosette design that is consistent with the threshold
rosettes, and trial fit and tape into position above the vertical
molding pieces.

BACK WALL MOLDING

3. Transfer the width measurement of the back wall onto one of

the molding pieces. Trim as needed. Choose the molding design
pattern that is consistent with the vertical strips and apply "globs"
of adhesive following the pattern illustrated. Final fit by setting
into position. Note that the horizontal wall molding will also be
centered on the rosettes atop the vertical moldings. This mea­surement must be considered when positioning the back wall
molding.

SIDE WALLS – HORIZONTAL MOLDING

4. Transfer the measurements from the side walls onto the mold­ing pieces. Cut as needed. Select the design that is consistent
with your application. Follow the adhesive pattern in step #3 and
final fit.

NOTE: It may be necessary to cut one of the side wall horizontal
moldings to allow for the location of the shower arm. Measure and
locate the position of the desired cut. Use router, spade bit, twist
drill, or hole saw only. DO NOT USE AUGER BITS. Cut hole 1/2"
larger than the diameter of the pipe. Drill from the exposed side
of the molding.

CAULKING

Following instructions on the caulking tube…apply a bead of caulk
along the bottom and to edge of the back and sidewalls. Also
apply caulk to all vertical seams and edges.

FINAL FIT

5. Final fit the vertical moldings first, then the two rosettes. Follow

the adhesive "glob" pattern used previously. Use the ‘tick" marks
to position the vertical moldings and rosettes.

NOTE:

To promote contact until adhesive sets, use temporary bracing and
allow adhesive to cure overnight. Temporary bracing may be con­structed and wedged into position as illustrated by using lengths
of 1 x 2’s, 2 x 2’s, or 1 x 3’s. Lumber should be cut as needed.

POSITIVELY NO HAMMERING

CLEANING

Clean your Swanstone Molding and Rosettes as you would any
other fine bath fixture, using normal household detergents and
cleansers. Just wiping the wall surface quickly removes water­marks and residues. Occasional scrubbing with household abra­sive cleansers ensures that the original luster is maintained, simi­lar to tile and other permanent type bath fixture materials.

REPAIRING

Use 400-grit sandpaper to remove scratches and gouges in the sur­face. A Scotch Brite pad can be used to blend in the area.
