Apply adhesive strips. Apply three horizontal strips of tape: one on top, one on the middle and one on the bottom of the panel, or apply tape to wall.
Do not remove liner on tape yet. Note: Carefully locate each panel location prior to installation as the adhesive tape is very aggressive. Remove liner from tape and install first panel. Remove liner from top layer of tape strips to expose the sticky adhesive surface.
Apply first panel, press firmly into place when alignment is correct. Bond overlap areas. Finish installation. Continue to add panels in this fashion until complete. Installation Tips To speed up adhesive curing time, lightly spray the adhesive with a fine mist of clean water after applying the Loctite PL Premium adhesive to the panel.
