Installation Recommendations

Store backers, faces and core materials together in a climate-controlled space so they can reach equilibrium.

Use with clean, dry and properly prepared particleboard, MDF or compatible composite panels.

Follow recommended hot press or cold press conditions based on the adhesive system and final panel construction.

Use balanced construction whenever possible to reduce movement and warping.

Allow pressed panels to cure before machining, finishing or further processing.

Use material within the recommended shelf life for best results.
