render it irregular and may cause its rejection. The completed proposal forms shall be without interlineation, alterations, or erasures.

and said addenda shall be made a part of the contract documents and shall be returned with them. Before submitting his bid, each bidder shall inform himself as to whether or not any addenda have been issued, and failure to cover in this bid any such addenda issued, may render his bid irregular, and may result in its rejection by the AGENCY.

12. LEGAL RESPONSIBILITIES All proposals must be submitted, filed, made, and executed in accordance with

State and Federal laws relating to bids for contracts of this nature whether the same are expressly referred to herein or not.

Additionally, the AGENCY reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, to accept any bid or portion thereof, to waive any irregularity, and to take the bids under advisement for the period of time stated in the "Notice Inviting Sealed Bids", all as may be required to provide for the best interests of the AGENCY. In no event will an award be made until all necessary investigations are made as to the responsibility and qualifications of the Bidder to whom the award is contemplated.

No bidder may withdraw his proposal for a period of ninety (90) days after the time set for opening thereof. However, the AGENCY will return all proposal guarantees within ten (10) days after the award of the contract or rejection of the bids, as the case may be, to the respective bidders whose proposals they accompany.

14. LABOR CODE

Pursuant to the provisions of Section 1773 of the Labor Code of the State of California, the AGENCY has obtained the general provisions rate of per diem wages and the general prevailing rate for holiday and overtime work in this locality for each craft, classification or type of workman needed to execute the contract from the State Director of the Department of Industrial Relations. These rates are on file with the Clerk of the AGENCY, and copies will be made available to any interested party on request. It shall be the responsibility of the prime Contractor to comply with all applicable sections of the Labor Code. Travel and subsistence payments to each workman needed to execute the work shall be made as such travel and subsistence payments are defined in the applicable collective bargaining agreements filed in accordance with Section 1773.8 of the Labor Code. The Contractor shall comply with the provisions of Section 1774 of the Labor Code. Failure to comply with the subject section will subject the Contractor to penalty and forfeiture provisions of Section 1775 of the Labor Code. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 1770 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing rate of wages has been ascertained (which rate includes employer payments for health and welfare, vacation, pension and similar purposes) applicable to the work to be done, for straight time, overtime, Saturday, Sunday and holiday work. The holiday wage rate listed shall be applicable to all holidays recognized in the collective bargaining agreement of the particular craft, classification or type of workmen concerned.

IB-5

The AGENCY will not recognize any claim for additional compensation because of the payment by the Contractor of any wage rate in excess of the prevailing wage rate or the Federal Minimum Wage Rate (whichever is greater) as set forth in the contract. The possibility of wage increases is one of the elements to be considered by the Contractor in determining his bid, and will not under any circumstances be considered as the basis of a claim against the AGENCY on the contract. The Contractor and subcontractors shall comply with Section 1777.6 which stipulates that it shall be unlawful to refuse to accept otherwise qualified employees as registered apprentices solely on the grounds of race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, sex, or age, except as provided in Section 3077, of such employee. CONTRACTOR’S REGISTRATION: In accordance with Labor Code section 1771.1, a contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to (a) bid on a or be listed in a bid proposal or (b) engage in the performance of any contract for public work, unless currently registered and qualified to perform the public work pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5. A bid shall not be accepted nor any contractor or subcontract entered into without proof of the contractor or subcontractor’s current registration to perform the public work pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5.

15. WORKER'S COMPENSATION CERTIFICATE Section 3700 of the State Labor Code requires that every employer shall secure

the payment compensation by either being insured against liability to pay compensation with one or more insurers or by securing a certificate of consent to self-insure from the State Director of Industrial Relations.

In accordance with this section and with Section 1861 of the State Labor Code, the

Contractor shall sign a Compensation Insurance Certificate, which is included with the Contract Agreement, and submit same to City along with the other required contract documents, prior to performing any work. Reimbursement for this requirement shall be considered as included in the various items of work.

16. CLAYTON ACT AND CARTWRIGHT ACT In accordance with Section 7103 of the Public Contract Code, in entering into a

public works contract or a subcontract to supply goods, services or materials pursuant to a public works contract, the contractor or subcontractor offers and agrees to assign to the awarding body all rights, and interest in and all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. Sec. 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2(commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services, or materials pursuant to the public works contract or the subcontract. This assignment shall be made and become effective at the time the

IB-6

awarding body tenders final payment to the Contractor, without further acknowledgment by the parties.

17. SUBLETTING AND SUBCONTRACTING. Pursuant to the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act (commencing

with Section 4100 of the Public Contract Code), bidders are required to list in their proposal the name and location of place of business of each subcontractor who will perform work or labor or render services in or about the construction of the work or improvement or a subcontractor who specially fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to detailed drawings contained in the Plans and Specifications in excess of 1/2 of 1% of this prime Contractor's total bid or $10,000, whichever is greater. Failure to list a subcontractor for a portion of the work means that the prime Contractor will do that portion of the work. It is the AGENCY's intent for the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act to apply to all phases of the work.

18. SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES In conformance with the State of California Government Code, Chapter 13, Section

4590, the Contractor may substitute securities for any monies withheld by the Agency to ensure performance under the contract.

At the request and expense of the Contractor, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall be deposited with the City, or with a State or federally chartered bank as the escrow agent, who shall pay such monies to the Contractor upon notification by AGENCY of Contractor’s satisfactory completion of the contract.

The type of securities deposited and the method of release shall be approved by the City Attorney’s office.

required to furnish a detailed schedule of values upon request of the City and in such detail and form as the City shall request, showing the quantities, unit prices, overhead, profit, and all other expenses involved in order to provide a basis for determining the amount of progress payments.

3.8.3 Contract Retentions. From each approved progress estimate, five percent (5%) will be deducted and retained by the City, and the remainder will be paid to Contractor.

The failure by the City to deduct any of these sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of the City’s right to such sums.

3.8.5 Substitutions for Contract Retentions.

Such transferred title shall in each case be good, free and clear from any and all security interests, liens, or other encumbrances. Contractor promises and agrees that it will not pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber the items in any manner that would result in any lien, security interest, charge, or claim upon or against said items. Such transfer of title shall not imply acceptance by the City, nor relieve Contractor from the responsibility to strictly comply with the Contract, and shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any loss of or damage to items.

3.9 Termination. This Contract may be terminated by City at any time by giving Contractor three (3) days advance written notice. In the event of termination by City for any reason other than the fault of Contractor, City shall pay Contractor for all Work performed up to that time as provided herein. In the event of breach of the Contract by Contractor, City may terminate the Contract immediately without notice, may reduce payment to the Contractor in the amount necessary to offset City’s resulting damages, and may pursue any other available recourse against Contractor.

SP-8

or the public; or for damage to adjoining property from any cause which might have been prevented by the Contractor, or his workmen, or any one employed by him; against all of which injuries or damages to persons and property the Contractor having control over such work must properly guard. The Contractor shall be responsible for any damage to any person or property resulting from defects or obstructions at any time before its completion and final acceptance, and shall indemnify and save harmless the City of Yorba Linda, its City Council, City’s representative, and Consultant from all suits or actions of every name and description, brought for, or on account of, any injuries or damages received or sustained by any person or persons, by the Contractor, his servants or agents, in the construction of the work or by or in consequence of any negligence in guarding the same, in improper materials used in its construction, or by or on account of any act or omission of the Contractor or his agents, and so much of the money due the Contractor under and by virtue of the Contract as shall be considered necessary by the City may be retained by the City until disposition has been made of such suits or claims for damages aforesaid.

In addition to shoring the excavations in accordance with the minimum requirements of Industrial Safety Orders, it shall be the Contractor's responsibility to provide any and all additional shoring required to support the sides of the excavation against the effects of load which may exceed those desired by using the criteria set forth in the Industrial Safety Orders. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for any damages which may result from his failure to provide adequate shoring of the excavation under any and all of the conditions of loading which may exist or which may arise during construction of the project. In accordance with Section 7104 of the Public Contract code, any public works contract which involves excavations that extend deeper than four feet below the surface shall provide as follows:

(a) That the Contractor shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify the public entity, in writing, of any:

1. Material that the Contractor believes may be

material that is hazardous waste, as defined in Section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law.

2. Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site

differing from those indicated.

3. Unknown physical conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally as inherent in work of the character provided for in the contract.

(b) The that public entity shall promptly investigate the conditions,

and if it finds that the conditions do materially so differ, or do involve hazardous waste, and cause a decrease or increase in the Contractor's cost of, or the time required for, performance of

SP-13

any part of the work shall issue a change order under the procedures described in the contract.

(c) That, in the event that a dispute arises between the public entity

and the Contractor whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in the Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work, the Contractor shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by the contract, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under the contract. The Contractor shall retain any and all rights provided either by contract or by law which pertain to the resolution of disputes and protests between the contracting parties.

Installing your own countertop is an opportunity forself-expression – and money savings. To help you do the job efficiently and with style, we've listed all the essential materials you will need, as well as nine simple steps for installing your new countertop.

Here are some essentials for a typical L-shaped kitchen countertop with a cutout for a sink or rangetop installation:

Countertop sections (order standard lengths). Your dealer should be able to miter cut and machine the fastening-bolt T-slots (underside of the joint).Fastening bolts (for drawing miter joints tight).Tube of sealant (for caulking joints).End splash and/or end caps (kits, as required).These should be available from your dealer.Non-flammable contact adhesive (for fastening end caps, unless kit has pre-applied adhesive for "iron-on" method).White glue (for fastening "build-up" blocks).

ToolsRequired

Introduction

MaterialsRequired


APPENDIX "B"

Check for proper length. Allow desired overhang. End caps should be used on all exposed ends (end cap kits). End splashes should be used where top butts wall (end splash kit). Additional material should be allowed to scribe for a tight fit to end wall.

Place your countertop upside down on a flat surface. Choose strips of wood thick enough to allow the countertop surface to match the front build-up. Glue strips around perimeter of countertop.

1 3Step

Fitting to

Length

Step

Build Up

Cover the Formica® brand laminate surface in the area to be sawed with a strip of masking tape and draw a pencil line on the tape to serve as your cutting guide. Use a fine-tooth handsaw(10 to 12 point) and always cut into the laminate surface to avoid chipping. Sand or file the cut to assure a smooth surface.

To apply end caps, set household iron at medium heat. Iron cap onto the end of the countertop with a back-and-forth motion. Let set for one minute, then tap the cap carefully with a rubber mallet. Finish trimming with a fine file, applying pressure only on the up strokes. Complete instructions are included in the end cap kit.

To apply end caps using non pre-glued end caps, apply a contact adhesive to both the substrate and the laminate. Follow manufacturer's guidelines for when adhesive is ready for bonding. Roll laminate with a J-roller. Finish trimming with a fine file, applying only pressure in the up strokes. If using a laminate trimmer with a flush trim carbide router bit, remove excess laminate and file smooth applying only pressure in the up strokes.

APPENDIX "B"

Always follow manufacturer's directions for installing appliances. Place the sink or rangetop rim on the back side of the countertop, where the appliance is to be located. Mark all the way aroundthe edge of the rim. Use a jig saw to cut the hole 1/4" to 3/8" smaller than the line. All cutout corners should have clean,chip-free radii. Apply two layers of heat-conductive aluminumtape around rangetop cutout.

The countertop can be scribed to match the wall surface. The top is provided with a scribe edge on the backsplash for this purpose. Place the top on the cabinet. Use a scriber-compass to mark the top edge of the countertop, then belt-sand orblock-plane to the line. This will contour the countertop to the wall. Put top in place, check for level and stability, and then secure to cabinets with wood screws.

Step 5 7Making Cutouts

for Sinks or

Rangetops Step

Scribing

If your kitchen requires an L- or U-shaped top, precut miters should be joined at this point in the installation. Apply a beadof sealant to each mitered edge. Tighten fasteners only enough to hold them in place. Align front edges and tighten fasteners. Tap surfaces to align (use wood blocks to avoid damaging the surface). Then tighten fasteners securely.

You may find it more convenient to install the sink faucets, 3/8" supply tubing and basket drain now, before dropping the sink into place. This is important if space behind the installed bowl is too tight for easy connection of plumbing fittings. All sinks must be sealed with sealant to avoid water damage to base material.

APPENDIX "B"

Remove excess sealant from sink area or end splash. The Formica® brand laminate surface of your new countertopis highly resistant to staining, wear and heat. It is not, however, completely impervious to chemicals, scratches and hot objects.

Cleaning. Formica brand laminate-clad countertops may be cleaned with a clean, non-abrasive, damp cotton cloth and a mild liquid detergent or household cleaner.

Heat Resistance. Avoid placing hot items on the counter-top. Use a trivet or a hot pad.

Surface Care. Use a cutting board to avoid damaging surface.

Formica® Laminate by Formica Group 1

USE AND CARE GUIDELINES

Formica® Laminate and ColorCore2TM by Formica Group are

designed for beauty and durability. Like any surfacing materials

they can be damaged by abuse and carelessness. When used as

recommended with proper use and care, the end result is years

of satisfaction.

PROTECTING THE SURFACE

Before selecting the surface material, consider the type of use

it will receive, as well as its texture, color, and reflective values.

A rough-textured surface has different advantages, depending

upon use, than a smooth-textured surface. For example, high-

gloss finish laminates are not recommended for use in heavy-duty

applications such as countertops. Dark colors tend to enhance

scratches, marring and fingerprints.

SCRATCH AND ImPACT PROTECTION

Formica Brand Laminate and ColorCore2 surfacing material are

resistant to scratches and impacts under normal use conditions.

Use cutting boards, chopping blocks, or other

protective surfaces.

• Do not chop, slice, pound, or hammer on any laminate surface.

• Knives or other sharp utensils may slice or scratch the surface.

• Heavy blows from a hammer or meat tenderizer may crack or

gouge the surface.

Use place mats, doilies, and trivets on laminate surfaces

when necessary.

• Ceramics and abrasive objects can cause scratching and

premature wear – do not slide these items across surface.

Follow recommendations for cleaning – do not use abrasive

cleaners, steel wool, sandpaper, or Scotch-Brite® scouring

pads (see Cleaning section inside).

HOT OBjECTS

Cookware still hot from the stove, oven or microwave, as well as

electric skillets, waffle irons, curling irons and hot rollers, should

not be placed directly on laminate surfaces. Prolonged exposure

to temperatures of 140°F (60°C) or higher may cause the laminate

to separate from the core material. Use a trivet, insulated hot pad

or other protective device beneath all hot cookware, heat

generating appliances, or other heated objects.

• Formica BrandLaminate and ColorCore2 surfacing

material can withstand heat up to 275°F (135°C) for short

periods of time.

Avoid ironing or placing a hot iron on laminate surfaces.

Do not place lighted cigarettes directly on laminate surfaces.

ORDINARY CLEANING

Formica Brand Laminate and ColorCore2 surfacing material are

very easy to clean.

• In most cases, you only need to use a clean, damp, non-

abrasive cotton cloth and a mild liquid detergent or

household cleaner.

• Rinse with clean water, using a clean, non-abrasive cotton cloth.

• Do not flood the laminate, especially near seams, since water

can penetrate and cause the substrate to swell.

• Dry the surface with a soft, clean, non-abrasive cotton cloth.

For specific types of surfaces, use the following care guidelines.

mATTE AND SPARkLE FINISH LAmINATES

Especially hard-to-clean areas may require special attention.

Use a nylon bristled hand or vegetable brush, along with a mild

liquid detergent-and-water solution or household cleaner. Clean

the soiled area using a rotating motion. Rinse and dry the surface

as indicated above.

SCULPTURE AND DImENSIONAL FINISH LAmINATES

These surfaces may require special attention to clean the

depressed areas. Use a nylon-bristled hand or vegetable brush,

along with a mild liquid detergent-and-water solution or house-

hold cleaner. Clean the soiled area, using a rotating motion.

Rinse and dry the surface as indicated above.

HIGH GLOSS FINISH LAmINATES

If residual streaks and smears remain after normal cleaning,

use a mild glass cleaner and then dry with a clean, non-abrasive

cotton cloth. Avoid exterior glass cleaner.

ABRASIvES

Abrasive pads, scouring powders or cleaners may permanently

dull and scratch the laminate surface making it susceptible

to staining.

Ceramics, including unglazed materials and other abrasive

objects, can cause scratching and premature wear – do not slide

these items across surface.

CHEmICAL DAmAGE

Never use cleaners containing acid, alkali, or sodium hypochlorite.

These cleaners will mar, etch, corrode, and permanently discolor

the laminate surface. Also, make sure that bottles, rags, and

other materials contaminated with these cleaners never contact

the laminate surface. Accidental spills or splatters from these

compounds should be wiped off immediately, and the area rinsed

thoroughly with water.

SPECIAL CLEANING RECOmmENDATIONS

RESIDUAL GLUE

Sometimes new decorative laminate has a streaky appearance

caused by contact adhesive used during fabrication. Clean with

a non-abrasive cotton cloth and an adhesive solvent such as

Formica® Brand Non-flammable Contact Adhesive Solvent. Use

solvent sparingly, as excessive amounts may delaminate edges.

Read and follow all warnings and instructions on the labels of all

solvent products.

PAINT AND vARNISH

Remove most oil-base paints, varnishes and lacquers from

decorative laminate surfaces with a suitable solvent. Read and

follow all warnings and instructions on the labels of all solvent

products, and remember that most solvents are extremely

flammable. Use solvent sparingly, as excessive amounts may

delaminate edges. Remove most water-based paints with an

ammoniated household cleaner. For stubborn paint spots, gently

use a plastic, non-metallic, non-abrasive pad. Never use steel

wool or other abrasive scouring pads.

STAINS

To remove or minimize stains, use full strength Fantastik® All

Purpose Cleaner, Formula 409®, Pine-Sol® (original formulation)

or other mild household cleaner on the affected area, and allow

it to draw out the stain. Blot with a clean, damp, non-abrasive

cotton cloth, and then rinse with clean water. When a recom-

mended cleaner changes its formulation, the change may be

harmful to the laminate surface. Formica Corporation cannot be

held responsible for these changes. Solvents such as denatured

alcohol can also be used. Follow all directions and warnings on

the solvent label because many are extremely flammable.

APPENDIX "B"

Three standard grades of Nevamar® High Pressure Laminate are suitable for most applications:

General Purpose Type NG48 is most often used in horizontal applications where high impact resistance and a durable, decorative surface is required.

Postforming Type NF39 is designed for manufacturing countertops and other horizontal surfaces where the laminate may be heated and rolled over the substrate edge to eliminate seams.

Type NF28 is designed for applications where impact resistance is less critical. Type NF28 can also be postformed.

Product Description

High pressure laminate is manufactured in a flat press by combining decorative papers saturated in melamine resin with phenolic-impregnated kraft layers at pressures exceeding 1000 psi (6.9 MPa) and temperatures approaching 300˚F (150˚C). The panels are trimmed to size and the backs are sanded to facilitate bonding. The thickness of the laminate is determined by the number of kraft layers used. The laminating process combines the durability of melamine resins with the aesthetics of decorative papers creating a surfacing material that has been the standard for many years.

Most textured finish items are produced with Nevamar’s exclusive Armored Protection® Surface and have all the properties of conventional laminate. But it also has superior abrasion and scuff resistance due to a very thin deposit of microscopic particles of aluminum oxide on the conventional melamine layer. Armored Protection® Surface has significantly better wear value than the NEMA standard for laminates. It also offers superior resistance to scuffing and retain a “brand new” appearance during most of their useful life. All other properties meet the normal NEMA test requirements.

Standard Nominal Sizes

Typical Uses

Nevamar® standard laminate is designed for either horizontal, vertical, or postforming applications. This laminate is seen on countertops, tables, vanities, interior doors, cabinets, contract furniture, and retail store fixtures.

Fabrication Tips

When working with Nevamar® HPL, these techniques will produce a quality application.

1. Proper conditioning of the laminate, substrate,and backing sheet minimizes possible warping,shrinking, or expansion of assembled panels.Ideally, all components should be conditioned at70˚F to 75˚F (21˚C to 25˚C) and 45 to 50 percentrelative humidity for 48-hours prior to assembly.

2. Always bond laminate to a suitable substratesuch as medium to high density fiberboard,particleboard, or metals. It should not be glueddirectly to plaster walls, gypsum wallboard, orconcrete.

3. Recommended adhesives include solvent or water-based contact cement, white glue (PVA), epoxy, andhot melt glue. Consult your adhesive supplier forspecific application requirements.

4. The use of a backing sheet is recommended tominimize warpage. The thickness of the backingsheet should be relatively equal to the thickness ofthe decorative laminate on the face of the assembly.

5. All saw blades and router bits used for cuttingshould be carbide tipped. Feed rate should be slowand tool speed should be high.

6. All edges of laminate should be filed smooth withfile direction towards substrate to help preventstress cracks and to minimize chipping.

7. Inside corners of cutouts for electrical outlets, sinks,etc., should have a minimum radius of 1/8” (3 mm)and be filed smooth. This reduces the likelihood ofstress cracks.

8. When fasteners are required, it is advisable to firstdrill an oversized hole through the laminate. Thisreduces the likelihood of stress cracks.

9. See the Nevamar® Postforming Technical Bulletinfor postforming application tips.

10. All laminate is intended for interior use only, andshould not be exposed to extreme humidity,continuous sunlight, or temperatures above 275˚F(135˚C) for extended periods of time.

Care and Maintenance

Nevamar® decorative laminate provides a durable surface that is easy to maintain using ordinary care.

To maintain the laminate’s lasting beauty, cleaning with a solution of warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent is all that should be required in most cases.

Stains may be removed with most non-abrasive household cleaners such as FORMULA 409®, GLASS PLUS® or WINDEX® with AMMONIA D®. Light scrubbing with a soft bristled brush may be necessary to remove

stains from the depth of the structure on some textured surfaces.

If the stain persists, use a paste of baking soda and water and apply with a soft bristled brush. Light scrubbing for 10-20 strokes should remove most stains. Although baking soda is a low abrasive, excessive scrubbing or exerting too much force may damage the decorative surface, especially if it has a gloss finish.

Stubborn stains that resist any of the above cleaning methods may require the use of undiluted household bleach. Apply the bleach to the stain and let stand no longer than 1 1/2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and wipe dry. This step may be repeated if the stain appears to be going away and the color of the laminate has not been affected. WARNING: Prolonged exposure of the laminate surface to bleach will cause discoloration.

Many commercially available products contain substances that may damage or discolor a laminate surface. ABRASIVE CLEANERS SHOULD NOT BE USED. Particular care should be used with any products labeled CAUTION or WARNING. Any questions or concerns should be referred to the product’s manufacturer or call 1-877-726-6526. Do not allow harsh materials to remain in contact with the laminate surface. Examples of these are as follows:

• Toilet bowl cleaners• Chlorine bleach• Hydrogen Peroxide• Coffee pot cleaners• Oven cleaners• Hard water stain removers• Drain cleaners• Fruit and berry juice• Metal cleaners and polishes• Tub and tile cleaners

II. APPLICATIONS for PentalQuartz1. I n t e r i o r A p p l i c a t i o n s

PentalQuartz is ideal for use in interior applications such as: kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, tuband shower surrounds, fireplace mantles, walls, stairs, restaurants, hotels, hospitals, and laboratories, andalso wherever high quality, sanitary, and low maintenance countertops are required.

Exposure to unfiltered direct sunlight may result in color change and/or warping. Most windows manufactured in the last 30 years block a sufficient amount of the UV rays to prevent color change or warping, however it should be taken into account, especially in older homes. It is advisable to avoid direct unfiltered sunlight over a prolonged period on the surfaces used in the above applications.

2. F i r e p l a c e M a n t l e A p p l i c a t i o n sPentalQuartz can be used for fireplace mantles but is not recommended for fireplace surrounds.PentalQuartz should not make contact with the firebox or surfaces exceeding 212 °F (100 °C). Exposureto temperatures above 212°F may result in localized seam separation or material cracking if not properlyinstalled.

3. E x t e r i o r A p p l i c a t i o n sPental Granite & Marble does not recommend PentalQuartz for use in exterior applications.Its use in an exterior application will void the warranty.

III. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS1. S l a b S i z e s

APPENDIX "B"

3. C o l o r C o n s i s t e n c y a n d T o n a l C h a r a c t e r i s t i c sVariation in slab and tile color may occur from batch to batch due to the location from which thenatural material is sourced. The composition of natural particles used in the products may sometimesproduce minor irregularities such as crazing in the grains, blotches, spots, or colored particles. Suchimperfections are generally accepted by the industry.

PentalQuartz is a non-porous product, but very fine micro pores could be present in certain colors/finishes and is unavoidable during the manufacturing process. It is the responsibility of the fabricator to visually verify color match of any slabs to be fabricated and installed prior to cutting.

APPENDIX "B"

IV. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS1. T a k i n g D e l i v e r y

When taking delivery of PentalQuartz, please remove the clear plastic covering to make sure of thefollowing: Check all the slabs for uniformity of color and granulometry (aggregate distribution) as slabs may

vary in color and granulometry from batch to batch. Check the slabs for any surface defects including: Contamination of grains, fine fissures, stains,

chipping, warping, and thickness variation. Do not transport slabs horizontally and use proper “A” frames to transport the slabs. Always keep the

polished surface protected and remove any sharp tools or implements from the vicinity of the slabsto avoid scratches on the polished surface.

If you detect any of the above defects after taking delivery of the slabs, and prior to cutting, do not proceed with the processing and return the slabs immediately.

2. P r o d u c t I d e n t i f i c a t i o nEach slab has a label with a serial number label on one side. This number is also referenced on yourpacking list. Serial number(s) of installed slabs must be given to the owner of the property of theinstallation for proper processing of the warranty.

If a slab is cut and used on two different installations, the serial number for the slab must be given to the owner of each property so they may each register their installation. The act of splitting the slab between different installations will not have any bearing on the warranty, as long as the installations would otherwise meet the warranty criteria. Any removal or intentional alteration of identifying information will void the material warranty.

V. DESIGN AND INSTALLATION GUIDE1. F a b r i c a t i n g P e n t a l Q u a r t z

Care should be taken when cutting and fabricating PentalQuartz. Tension within the slab can causecracking. Following these simple rules can minimize the chance of this occurring. For a plunge cut, prior to beginning the cut, drill a 1” relief hole at the termination point of the cut.

Always cut towards the relief hole.


APPENDIX "B"

For a “U” shaped cut, mark and drill relief holes where the cut lines will intersect. Always make theshortest cut first.

For an “L” shaped cut, mark and drill relief holes where the cut lines will intersect. Always cut theshortest length first, and cut towards the relief hole.

For a cut that will be the full length of the slab, either with a plunge cut, or starting at the edge,mark and drill a relief hole at the termination point of the cut, then cut towards the relief hole.

Fabrication of PentalQuartz requires a minimum radius for all inside corners of 3/8” or larger.

2. R e c o m m e n d e d W a t e r j e t S e t t i n g sFor the best results, be sure the cutting table is completely flat when fabricating PentalQuartz.

Orifice size: .0140Abrasive Flow Rate: .16

Initial cut for approximately the first 10-15 seconds at low pressure: 8,000 - 10,000 PSIThen increasing to high pressure for the balance of cutting the piece: 43,000 - 45,000 PSI

Feed Rate: 2.5 in/min. initially at low pressure. Increase to 3.5 - 3.75 in/min. for the remainder of thecutting at high pressure.

NOTE: Recommendations and settings may vary depending on a number of factors including but notlimited to equipment and abrasive materials used. Please consult with your equipment’s manufacturerfor optimal material cutting recommendations for your waterjet.


APPENDIX "B"

3. K i t c h e n / V a n i t y C a b i n e t sPrior to installing countertops, the cabinets and base units should be checked for the following: Strength and stability; the cabinets and substrate base should be able to withstand weight in excess

of 12lbs per Sq. Ft. All units are fastened to both the wall and between the base units. Cabinets are leveled properly. The top of the cabinets must be plumb, true, and flat. Make sure

that the level does not vary more than 1/16” over 10’. Remove any nails, screws or sharp edges from the surfaces where the tops would be placed.

4. I n s t a l l a t i o n o f C o u n t e r t o p sNo two kitchen countertops are the same, however there are some general guidelines for installingPentalQuartz countertops. As long as the base cabinets are level and they allow for the supportoutlined below, no additional support is needed when installing 3cm material. When installing anymaterial less than 3cm in thickness, you must ensure the countertop has proper support. For material lessthan 3cm thick, the base supporting the countertop can either be Complete Perimeter support orComplete Underlay support. Rarely will all the walls be perfectly square. Be sure to make allowances for such imperfections prior

to cutting. Clearance of at least 1/8” should be maintained between the PentalQuartz surface andsurrounding walls.

Countertops should be placed on a very sound and solid frame or a base which is perfectly plumb,level and true.

C o m p l e t e P e r i m e t e r S u b s t r a t e S u p p o r t Support the top, front, and back with a rail of not less than 3.5” in width and 5/8” thick. Then

support the back of the slab with rails 3.5” wide spaced at regular intervals of approximately24”, as shown below.

It is important to provide a minimum of 1/8” between the edge of the slab and the wall so thatany expansion in the wall or slab due to temperature variation can be accommodated. Anadditional gap of 1/8” per 5’ for all countertops exceeding 10’ should be provided.

Apply dabs of flexible 100% silicone adhesive at regular intervals of not less than 12” apart onthe back of the top, then place the top gently, and level the tops before the adhesive hardens.


APPENDIX "B"

C o m p l e t e U n d e r l a y S u b s t r a t e S u p p o r t Alternately, the complete surface area of the countertop can be supported over the kitchen cabinets with a full width self-supporting underlay made up of plywood with a minimum thickness of 5/8”.

5. P l a n n i n g a n d I n s t a l l a t i o n o f C o u t n e r t o p s w i t h J o i n t s & C u t O u t s . Do not place joint within 6 inches of a planned cut out, such as for a sink, cook top, etc. Due to various mechanical stresses experienced after installation, Pental Granite & Marble does not

recommend installing “L” shaped countertops without a joint at the corner of the “L” shape.Fabricator should use their own discretion when fabricating.

All the joints in the countertops should be well supported from underneath. All the joints should be properly cleaned with denatured alcohol to get rid of dust and grime. All the sides of the joints should be grooved or slotted in the middle so that the glue joining the two

slabs will be well distributed for good adhesion. Check that the countertop is well aligned, both along the joint(s) and also along the front. Check that the countertop is leveled properly and is plumb and true. Use paper masking tape at the joints so that the glue applied to the joints does not move to the

polished face.


APPENDIX "B"

Ensure that the joints are perfect and then place clamps at the joints until the adhesive setsproperly.

Once set, remove the masking tape and clean off any excess adhesive from the contact surfacewith denatured alcohol.

Do not fasten any mechanical fasteners like screws and nails directly into PentalQuartz. Seams should not be placed directly over a dishwasher or other appliance that may radiate heat.

If you are planning to make your cut outs onsite, it is essential that the operation is in an area where youcan use wet tools. It is not recommended that you cut the sink or cook top cut outs, on the top ofcabinets with dry cutting tools.

All the cut outs should be cut using only wet cutting tools to avoid generating excess heat to the tops and the corners. The radius of the corner should be around ¼”. When cut outs are planned allow an extra 1/8” between the appliance edges and the top cut out sides. This is essential to accommodate any expansion that may develop in the top due to temperature changes.

Care should be taken when installing appliances like cook tops and sinks, etc. Read the instructionmanual that was supplied by the appliance manufacturer prior to installing any appliances. Makesure that all brackets and supporting hardware are included.

Center the appliance in the cut out and make sure that you allow a minimum of 1/8” spacebetween the inside edges of the appliance and the cut out walls.


APPENDIX "B"

Position all the appliances in place and make sure that the seals provided with the appliances areproperly placed prior to tighten the fasteners. All fasteners should be only finger tight, never useforce in tightening the fasteners.

Any appliances weighing more than 11lbs should be adequately supported by the cabinet frames.

All of the joints between the countertop and the appliance edges can be sealed with a high qualitytransparent flexible sealant. Clean any excess sealant immediately.

Uneven thermal distribution may occur in areas above dishwashers and over hot water plumbingsystems which may cause the top to crack. To avoid this, all the hot water plumbing should bethermally insulated. It is a good practice to make the tap holes slightly oversized so that the hotplumbing system is not in direct contact with the product.

When installing a dishwasher, it is essential to fit an 18mm thick moisture resistant board or marineplywood above the dishwasher in the cabinet.


APPENDIX "B"

6. O v e r h a n g a n d S u p p o r t i n g B r a c k e t sAll overhangs should be properly supported. Any overhang that exceeds 8” for 2cm material, or 12” for2cm material with a 5/8” sub top, or 16” for 3cm material shall require the support of a 3/8” thick steelbar no less than 2.75” wide or appropriate L-Brackets placed underneath the top to support thepotential weight load. If a 1 ½” laminated edge is used, then a piece pasted to the top can extend thewhole width of the overhang to take away some of the stress placed on the overhang.

If the overhang is less than 20” then general practice is to provide a support base made up of timber and brackets placed approximately 20” apart. The brackets should be fastened to a backer plate, which is secured to the cabinet or wall with screws. All over hangs exceeding 20” should be supported with proper metal or solid wood legs.

APPENDIX "B"

7 . I n s t a l l a t i o n o f B a c k s p l a s h PentalQuartz can be used for a backsplash application in wet areas, behind wash basins, sinks, and behind cook tops. However, when installing backsplashes behind gas cook tops and heat generating appliances, it is important that the installer follow all instructions and safety requirements as outlined by the appliance manufacturers, as well as conform to any local building standards or codes.

The installer must also ensure that the following general guidelines are strictly followed: Make sure that the walls are vertical and free from dirt and grime. If needed clean the entire

surface. It is not advisable to install a backsplash on gyprock boards and any paper lined gypsum product. The backsplash pieces should be thoroughly cleaned on the back and on the top. Place them in

the area to be installed and check whether the pieces fit properly. After the pieces are fit satisfactorily, clean the contact surfaces with denatured alcohol and apply

dabs of transparent two part epoxy glue to both the surfaces of the contact and place thecladding. It is not advisable to use grout between the cladding and the countertop. Use a flexiblesilicon based sealant to fill the gap between the countertop and backsplash.

8. C l a d d i n g W a l l sPentalQuartz can be used for all internal cladding of walls and vertical applications. When designingand installing vertical panels and cladding, it is necessary to take the mass of the product into accountand the services of an experienced structural engineer should be sought during the design andinstallation phases.

If fasteners are needed for safe installation, care should always be taken. Damage caused by the attachment or use of Mechanical Fasteners is not covered by the warranty.

9. F a b r i c a t i n g W h i t e a n d V e i n e d C o l o r sDue to the Cristolbalite content inside several PentalQuartz colors, special care is needed whenfabricating the colors listed below:

BQ100 ThassosBQ8220 LatticeBQ8440 VenatinoBQ8270 CalacattaBQ8530 CarraraBQ8550 OnixaaBQ8628 StatuarioBQ8660 AvenzaBQ8670 BorghiniBQ8669 White MacaubasBQ8815 MisterioBQ8912 ArabescatoBQ8818 Crema ChiffonBQ8668 Icelake

As the fabricator you can try different combinations of polishing tools when polishing edges of BQ100/BQ8220 to find optimum working conditions. At the factory, the slabs are polished with the following combination of polishing tools:


APPENDIX "B"

Spindles: 7 The first time: 50 grit - 50 grit - 100 grit - 100 grit - 100 grit - 100 grit- 200 grit

Second time: 200 grit - 400 grit - 600 grit - 800 grit -1000 grit - 1200 grit - 1600 grit.

As fabricator equipment may vary, it is best to start the polishing process with 100 grit pads/stone and progress through the polishing process until the factory polish is matched. REMINDER: Surface polishing the face of the slab at any time will void the material warranty.

Relief cuts and relief holes are effective ways to address mechanical stress in these colors. It is necessary to use one or both in the fabrication process to ensure that the slabs in these colors are not damaged during cutting.

To make a relief cut for a long section of material begin by measuring in from the adjacent edge 1 or 2 inches. Make the relief cut at that point parallel to the final edge of the slab for a distance of 20 inches. Once this cut is made, proceed with the long final cut to produce the final edge of the piece 1 or 2 inches back from the relief cut. The process for making and using relief holes is described in section 4.

1 0 . I n s t a l l a t i o n o f T i l e s As with any tile application it is important to follow the correct method for affixing the tile that is most suitable for that specific application. Installers tend to affix engineered tiles in the same way they handle ceramic tiles, using adhesives meant for ceramic tiles. However, such practices have led to failures in installation.

The environment of every tile installation is different, and the installations can be handled in a number of ways. If the final installation is to function successfully, it is important for installers to consider the following characteristics of materials that affect different aspects of an installation. Differential movement Structural deflections Foundation movements Thermal movements Moisture movements Radiant Heat Source Dimensional stability

Most importantly, the thermal movement (expansion and contraction) of engineered tiles should betaken into consideration when designing a tiling system. Engineered stones have a much higher linearthermal expansion when compared to natural stones and ceramic tiles.


APPENDIX "B"

Moisture movements both permanent and reversible may occur due to moisture content of the environment. Engineered stones have been known to possess appreciable reversible moisture movement.

Dimensional stability refers to the ability of an engineered stone tile to resist curling or warping when exposed to water contained in the adhesives. When the tile surface absorbs moisture, the surface of the wet side expands more than the dry side, and the result is that tiles tend to warp.

Adhesive manufacturers have vast experience in the installation of a tiling system using Engineered Stones. Accordingly, we strongly recommend that the installer consult the relevant manufacturers and seek their advice prior to installation of PentalQuartz slab and tile.

Custom Building Products: http://www.custombuildingproducts.com Mapei: http://www.mapei.com Laticrete: http://www.laticrete.com

Pental Granite & Marble, Inc. does not accept any responsibility nor does it recommend a particular method of installation. It is the responsibility of the installer/buyer to design the tiling system based on the advice obtained from the engineered tile adhesive manufacturers.

VI. CARE & MAINTENANCEPentalQuartz is a high quality solid non-porous product that is resistant to scratches, heat, and stains. However, PentalQuartz is not heat, stain and scratch proof. PentalQuartz requires minimal maintenance and the following care and maintenance guidelines will help to keep the surface in impeccable condition for years.

1. G e n e r a l R o u t i n e C a r e a n d M a i n t e n a n c ePentalQuartz is highly resistant to stains caused by fruit juices, liquid food coloring, coffee, tea, wine,grapes, soft drinks, paints, nail polish and remover, automotive fluids, and permanent markers. Should aspill occur, wipe off the stained area with any commonly available multi-purpose cleaner or householddetergent and then rinse the area with water immediately. For more stubborn spills and stains, repeatthe procedure several times and use a soft, non-metallic scouring pad to remove the stain. It is possiblethat some of the stubborn stains may leave a light mark or very slight discoloration of the stone.

2 . P r e v e n t i n g H e a t D a m a g e t o C o u n t e r t o p s PentalQuartz is designed and manufactured to withstand moderate heat but the product is not heat proof. The Thermal Shock resistance is increased with the increase of the thickness of the material; 3cm slabs are far more resistant to heat than a 1.2cm slab. Like any other composite material, PentalQuartz may be damaged by a sudden and/or lasting exposure to high temperatures, mainly at the edges and cut outs of the product, resulting in cracks. To prevent thermal shock, discoloration or other damages, it is necessary to use insulating pads or trivets when putting hot objects on the surface, and not to expose the surface to open flames or prolonged contact with very hot pots. We always recommend using a hot pad or trivet, especially when using cooking appliances such as electric frying pans, crock pots, or roaster ovens.

3. U s e o f C o m m o n K i t c h e n I m p l e m e n t sCommon kitchen implements including sharp knives won’t harm PentalQuartz, however continuedcutting in the same area directly on the surface may dull the polished finish over time. Care should betaken when moving heavy objects to avoid dropping heavy kitchen tools on the PentalQuartz surface.


APPENDIX "B"

4. R e m o v i n g F o r e i g n M a t e r i a l sIf food, chewing gum, nail polish, paint or any other foreign material is found sticking to the top/floor,simply scrape away the material with a sharp blade or sharp plastic scraper. The use of a metal scrapermay leave grey metal marks on the surface, and nylon non-abrasive scouring pad can easily removethem. Wash and rinse the surface in the normal way with water.

5. E x p o s u r e t o C h e m i c a l s a n d S o l v e n t sPentalQuartz can be permanently damaged by prolonged exposure to strong chemicals and solvents.It is advisable not to use hydrofluoric acid, or any product such as oven cleaners or drain cleanerscontaining trichlorethane or methylene chloride and paint strippers.

6. E x p o s u r e t o D i r e c t S u n l i g h tWhen exposed to direct sunlight PentalQuartz slabs and tiles may result in color change and warping. Itis advisable to avoid direct sunlight over a prolonged period.

7. M a i n t e n a n c e o f F l o o r sDust, grit, and barrier materials from the floors should be removed on a daily basis by sweeping with asoft brush. Sand, rocks or other debris can scratch the Quartz Based Tile floor and those surfaces shouldalways be kept free from dust, sand and soil. PentalQuartz surfaces can be easily cleaned with warmwater and mild household detergent using a standard mop. Make sure the floor is completely drybefore allowing people to walk on it.

8. M a i n t e n a n c e o f H o n e d a n d S a t i n F i n i s h e sPentalQuartz is offered in several finishes including polished, honed, satin, and brushed. Just as eachfinish has a different look, it also has slightly different characteristics.

Some colors are available in our HONED or SATIN finish which offers the soft appearance of a lower sheen compared to the POLISHED finish. The HONED and SATIN finishes require slightly more maintenance than our polished finished materials. Since the honed or satin finish actually creates more surface area to the material it has the potential to show more signs of living from daily use. Possible marks from metal cookware or utensils, fingerprints, food and beverages, and other items placed on, or moved across the countertop, may be visible on the surface. Most marks can be easily removed with a cloth or sponge, or by using household cleaners such as a cleaning eraser or carefully scrubbing with a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaner such as Soft Scrub Advanced Cleaner®. Over time the Honed or Satin finish will develop character and a patina unique to each customer. Honed and satin finishes can be cleaned using the same products and methods as other finishes. Please see our care and maintenance guide at: PentalQuartz.com

Be aware of the unique characteristics of honed and satin finishes; these will be more likely to show scuffs, marks, and fingerprints, and will require more frequent or intense cleaning and maintenance to keep them free from marks.

The warranty issued by Pental Granite & Marble for PentalQuartz covers manufacturing defects, however the temporary marks that commonly occur on honed and satin finishes are inherent to the material, and are not covered under the terms of the warranty.

9. C l e a r S h i p p i n g P l a s t i c R e m o v a lPentalQuartz is protected during transportation by a protective plastic cover. The plastic and its acrylicadhesive should be removed using the method described below. Strip away plastic sheeting. Wash away the remaining adhesive with “warm” water and a small amount of mild soap. Warm is

defined as between 104°-120° Fahrenheit. Clean the whole surface of the slab.


APPENDIX "B"

Wait for 5-10 minutes. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as necessary until the surface is free of adhesive. Rinse with cool water.

Note: Do NOT use chemicals such as alcohol or denatured alcohol! The use of solvents to remove the film causes the adhesive to dissolve and create a chemical reaction which may change the appearance of the slab surface and will not be covered under the product warranty.

10. A d v i c e t o t h e I n s t a l l e rIt is the duty of the installer to advise customers of the important aspects of Care and Maintenance forPentalQuartz.

Please visit the link below to learn more about safety when cutting natural stone and engineered stone slabs. Please keep in touch with OSHA and MIA for the most updated information. http://www.marble-institute.com/silica/


APPENDIX "B"

Technical Bulletin Proper use of Chemicals on quartz surfaces

While quartz is very resistant to various chemicals, there is a risk of damage to the finished surface from prolonged exposure to certain chemicals.

Proper use of denatured alcohol and other chemicals:

1. Denatured alcohol may safely be used to remove excess adhesive near edge details andmaterial seams. Denatured alcohol may also be used to clean the finished surface of PentalQuartz of stains, fabrication markings, or templating residue.

2. Acetone should not be used on quartz surfaces for any reason.3. Denatured alcohol should be applied to a cloth for cleaning and not poured directly on the

material surface.4. Chemical bottles or metal cans should not be left on the material surface as it is possible to

trap liquid under the container and cause damage to the Pental Quartz finish.5. Denatured alcohol soaked cloths should not be placed or left on the material surface for

prolonged periods of time as this can cause damage to the material finish.6. It is possible for denatured alcohol or other chemicals to become trapped under the protective

plastic on slabs during the fabrication process. In order to avoid this potential issue it is againrecommended to only apply denatured alcohol to a cloth for cleaning and not pour the liquidon the slab surface. Make sure to clean any spills immediately and remove plastic from anyareas exposed to the chemical spill.

7. Below is a list of other chemicals that could potentially damage or affect the finish on PentalQuartz. This list is not all inclusive as there are other potential chemicals that may damage thematerial. The degree of any damage experienced may vary based upon the chemical,concentration, and the length of time of exposure.

• Dyes, stains, drain cleaners, oven cleaners, paint thinner or strippers.• Stone sealers, enhancers, agers, or other topical treatments.• Solvents such as acetone, nail polish, lacquer thinner, or bleach (short-term exposure is

acceptable for purpose of cleaning difficult stains, but these chemicals should beremoved and thoroughly rinsed away within five minutes of application)

• Chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethylene or methylene chloride• Benzene, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone• Concentrated acids such as hydrocyanic acid, hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid,

sulfuric acid, nitric acid, or muriatic acid.• Chemicals with high alkaline/PH levels above 8.5

In case of contact with any of the above chemicals, immediately rinse thoroughly with water.

leveler or patching compound. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended practices when covering an existing

substrate.

WARNING!

DO NOT SAND, DRY SWEEP, BEAD BLAST, SHOT BLAST OR USE ANY OTHER MECHANICAL MEANS

TO PULVERIZE EXISTING TILE FLOORING, BACKING, LINING FELT, ASPHALTIC “CUT - BACK” OR

ANY OTHER ADHESIVES. THESE PRODUCTS MAY CONTAIN ASBESTOS FIBERS AND /OR

CRYSTALLINE SILICA. AVOID CRE ATING DUST. INHALATION OF SUCH DUST IS A CANCER AND RE

SPIRATORY TRACT HAZARD. SMOKING BY INDIVIDUALS EXPOSED TO

ASBESTOS FIBERS GREATLY INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS BODILY HARM. UNLESS POSITIVELY

CERTAIN THAT THE PRODUCT IS A NON - ASBE STOS CONTAINING MATERIAL, YOU MUST PRESUME IT CONTAINS

ASBESTOS. REGULATIONS MAY REQUIRE THAT THE MATERIAL BE TESTED TO DETER MINE ASBESTOS CONTENT.

INSTALLING MILLIKEN LUXURY VINYL PLANK

1. General

a. When using more than one carton, make sure that the cartons are all the same dye lot. Different

lots may have a variation in color, texture or gloss so they should not be mixed in the same room. Contact

Milliken before installing product from differing runs or lots.

b. Milliken plank simulates wood planks, and can be installed in the same pattern as a wood plank

floor in a random pattern, staggered design, diagonally or other design.

c. Planks are best in appearance when lying parallel to the longest walls in the room.

d. Milliken products can be cut using a tile cutter or a utility knife. Keep knife blades sharp for easy,

accurate and safe cuts. Fit tiles to walls, columns, door jambs, etc. using the same methods other floor

tiles; overlap, pattern scribe, wall scribe and free hand.

e. If it is necessary to heat the planks to achieve a cut, heat slightly from the back only with minimal heat

setting (a standard hair dryer will produce enough heat). Carefully make cuts with a sharp utility knife on

the heated plank.

2. Adhesive selection


APPENDIX "B"

a. Milliken adhesives are designed to be used on most interior installations over most concrete and

wood substrates, and other approved substrates that are properly prepared and leveled.

b. Use of non-Milliken adhesive does not affect Milliken LVT product warranties, however, any claim related toadhesive performance or workmanship and any damage caused by this would be the total responsibility of theparty responsible for using the non-recommended product.

c. Milliken LVT adhesive is especially formulated to give superior performance with Milliken LVTproducts. Adhesive should be purchased with the LVT for maximum convenience and lowest total cost.

d. Some commercial applications and special substrates a two-part epoxy or urethane adhesive is

recommended. Typical applications for these types of adhesives are wet areas, floors subjected to heavy

point loads and/or rolling loads, and floors that will be exposed to extreme temperature changes or

extreme temperatures. Contact Milliken for proper adhesives and installation procedures.

3. Lay out

a. Determine the center of the room by measuring each end wall and marking the center of the wall. Chalk a

line across the points and measure to determine the center point. At a right angle to the chalk line, using

the center point, chalk another line out to the other walls.

b. Dry lay a section of tile/plank from the center line to one wall to determine that the pattern is

centered and fit. Border cuts and planks along walls should be measured and should not be less than half

the width of a plank. If the cut is less than half the width of the installed plank, adjust the first row at the

center line to make the centerline match the centerline of the row of planks.

c. Planks should never be less than 9 inches long or less than half of the width of the plank. Avoid small

pieces in border areas and adjust the center lines to achieve the proper pattern.

4. Installation of flooring

Spread adhesives using the proper trowel notch. Trowel notch is dependent on the type of subfloor being

installed upon; porous substrate or non-porous substrate. Use only the notches shown below for installing the

planks. More adhesive is not a good thing with LVT products.

a. Porous substrates

i. To determine if a substrate is porous, sprinkle a few drops of water in the prepared substrate. If

the water is absorbed with 2 minutes the substrate should be considered to be porous.

ii. Examples of porous substrates are wood underlayment panels, APA A/C grade plywood,

cementitious underlayment, and many concrete substrates.

iii. It is recommended that you not work on the freshly installed flooring. This means that you will

have to start from the wall or area opposite of an exit, and work towards that exit. Only spread

enough adhesive that can be utilized before the initial set or tack. See adhesive container label

for approximate times and further instruction.

iv. Before spreading adhesive, strike a parallel chalk line to the centerline of the length of the room

approximately 2’ to 3’ from the wall. Actual position is to be determined by the layout of the

planks, ensure that the pattern is followed from your initial starting point determined in the dry

layout performed earlier. If necessary, relay part of the pattern from centerline starting point to

determine the exact measurement of the parallel line.


APPENDIX "B"

v. For Porous substrates, spread adhesive with a 1/16” x 1/16” x 1/16” square-notch trowel in an

area that can be installed within the working time of the adhesive.

vi. The adhesive should be allowed to dry to the touch sufficient to prevent slippage. Loss of

adhesion can result if the flooring is not installed within the working time of the adhesive.

vii. Roll the area with a 100lb. roller in both directions immediately after installation.

b. Non-porous substrates

i. If during the test performed above the water is not absorbed into the substrate, this is

considered a non-porous installation.

ii. Examples of non-porous substrates are steel troweled concrete, staircases, terrazzo, ceramic tile,

metal, existing fully-adhered non-cushion backed resilient flooring and poured polymeric floors.

Be sure you are using the proper adhesive on non-porous substrates.

iii. For Non-porous substrates, spread adhesive with a 1/16” x 1/32” x 1/32” u-notch trowel in an

area that can be installed within the working time of the adhesive.

iv. Immediately roll the installation with a 100 pound, 3-section roller to ensure proper transfer of

adhesive to LV plank backing.

Do not install flooring into wet adhesives on non-porous substrates.

c. After determining the starting point and spreading your adhesive; continue to lay the tile by

tightly butting the edges of the plank together, making sure that the runs are parallel to your

centerline or layout lines.

d. Be sure to stagger all end joints by at least 6” or the width of one plank. If need be, vary the

length of your planks during installation to ensure that end joints are not bunched and a randomness

is achieved in the pattern.

e. If you need to be directly on freshly laid planks, use of a kneeling board is recommended to

evenly distribute weight across the planks and keep them from creeping in the wet adhesive.

f. During installation, roll the floor with a 3-section 100 lb. roller to ensure proper transference of

adhesive to the plank backing.

g. Tiles can be cut using a vinyl/ VCT tile cutter or using a utility knife with heavy-duty blades by scoring

and snapping tiles carefully along the score line. Use a steel straight edge for cutting tile along the

length with a utility knife.

After Installation

1. Be sure planks are set, flat and have tight edges. Re-roll the entire installation, along the length and width

of the planks with a 3-section 100 lb. roller to ensure all tiles are properly set into the adhesive. If

necessary, weigh down any loose planks overnight to ensure bond. Adhesive can be carefully reactivated

using a heat gun after drying to reinstall planks.

2. Clean adhesive residue from the face of the flooring following these directions:


APPENDIX "B"

a. Wet adhesive residue on the surface of the planks can be cleaned with a clean, white cloth dampened

with warm, soapy water. Do not use excess water as this can seep between the seams of planks and

lead to an adhesion failure!

b. Dry adhesive residue can be cleaned with mineral spirits or denatured alcohol and a clean cloth in a

sparingly manner. Carefully follow the directions on the mineral spirits container. Please note:

improper use of any chemical can harm the finish of the LVT.

c. Do not pour soapy water, mineral spirits or denatured alcohol directly on the LV planks.

d. If working with epoxy or urethane adhesives you must clean these up while wet according to the

adhesive manufacturer’s instructions, which can be generally found on the container label.

3. Proper rolling of floors during and after installation is a must on Luxury Vinyl products. Use a 3-section,

100 pound roller to set flooring into the adhesives.

4. In the event that the plank flooring is not the last portion of the construction project, the floor must be

protected from construction traffic and damage. Wait 24 hours and utilize a reinforced fiber protective

board or a heavy kraft paper (min. 60 lbs.) and cover the floor. Failure to wait 24 hours before covering

can impact adhesive curing.

IMPORTANT

Acclimation - Store products at 65° to 85° Fahrenheit (18° to 29° Celsius) for 48 hours prior to installation

Storage – Store cartons flat, do not stand on end. Do not store in direct sunlight

GENERAL SURFACE PREPERATION 1. All walls must be permanently dry, clean, smooth, and structurally

sound. The surface must be free of all dust, loose particles, solvents,paint, grease, oil, wax, alkali, sealing/curing compounds, oldadhesive, and any other foreign material, which could affect theinstallation and adhesive bond to the substrate. Permanent and non-permanent markers, pens, crayons, paint, or similar marking toolsused to mark the substrate or the back of the wall base material willcause migratory staining. Substrate contamination or markings thatbleed through the wall base material causing discoloration or stainingare excluded from the Tarkett Limited Warranty. All substratecontaminants must be mechanically removed prior to the installationof the flooring material. NOTE: Do not use liquid solvents oradhesive removers.Fill all depressions, cracks, and other surface irregularities with agood quality patching compound appropriate for this purpose.

2. Do not install Johnsonite Resilient Wall Base over vinylwallcoverings.

3. Do not install Johnsonite Resilient Wall Base over non-poroussurfaces with Tarkett 960 Wall Base Adhesive. Utilize Tarkett 946Premium Contact Adhesive following the non-porous applicationinstructions for all non-porous surface installations.

4. Never install Johnsonite Resilient Wall Base on surfaces that will beexposed to drastic temperature changes or moisture.

5. Terrazzo and Ceramic wall surfaces must be thoroughly sandedto remove all glaze and waxes. Remove or replace all loose tiles andclean the grout lines. Use a Portland cement based levelingcompound to fill all grout lines and other depressions.

6. Steel wall surfaces must be mechanically abraded to assist with theadhesive bond. The wall must be cleaned to remove all dirt, rust andother contaminants. When applying adhesive the non-porousinstallation instructions must be followed.

INSTALLATION 1. Adhesive Application: See adhesive chart below and follow

adhesive label instructions for proper use.2. Installation Procedures:

a. Allow coiled wall base to lay flat for at least 24 hours, between65° and 85°F (18.3° and 29.4°C) with HVAC system operating,prior to installation.

b. For installations on porous wall surfaces, apply Tarkett 960 WallBase Adhesive to the ribbed surface (back) of the wall base witha 1/8" square-notched trowel. The adhesive should cover 80% of

the back surface. Leave a 1/4" (6.35mm) uncovered space at the top of the wall base to prevent the adhesive from oozing onto the wall above the base when installed.

c. For installations on non-porous wall surfaces (i.e.: metal, epoxypaint, ceramics, etc.) apply Tarkett 946 Premium ContactAdhesive to both the wall surface and the back of the wall base.Allow adhesive to thoroughly dry to the touch.Note: Once contact is made to the wall surface, the wall basecannot be moved.

Rolls of paperbacked fabric should be stored so that a minimum weight rests on each piece. Do not stand on end.

All wallcoverings must be examined for pattern, color and quality. Make sure that multiple rolls match each other. If you encounter any problems, do not hang more than three drops without notifying the specifier and getting his or our approval to proceed. Irregularity of weaves, heavy slubs, pieces of flax and variations in shades are characteristic of linen. Obvious weaving bars or defects are marked by our inspectors with tape and should be cut out.

The walls must be completely smooth. The walls should be prepared with a quality wallcovering primer chosen at the discretion of the installer.

Use clear wallcovering adhesive. Adhesives should not be thinned with chemical solvent.

When hanging laminated fabric, apply the adhesive to the paper backing. When hanging acrylic backed fabric, apply the adhesive to the wall. We recommend table trimming and butting. Use a new blade for each sheet. If the wallcovering tends to curl away from the top or bottom of the wall, prime the top or bottom edges of the wall with adhesive. Allow to become tacky before hanging fabric.

Do not wash seams with water. Any excess adhesive which comes through at the seams should be allowed to dry and should then be removed with a dry brush. When removing excess adhesive from the ceiling and the baseboard, protect the fabric from water. Do not wet the fabric.

Some patternsshould be lined up, matched or reversed for best results. Ifnecessary, trim selvage deep enough to assure color uniformity.

(d) After application of three strips, an inspection should be madeand if there are any variations in color or pattern which are feltto be excessive, the wallcovering distributor or manufacturer’srepresentative should be notified for his inspection before anyfurther wallcovering is installed.

(e) Always bring material six (6) inches around inside andoutside corners being sure to fit into corners to avoid bridging orspanning.

(f) The wallcovering should be smoothed to the hanging surfacewith a stiff bristled sweep brush or a flexible broad-knife toeliminate air bubbles.

(g) Remove excess adhesive along finished seam immediately aftereach wallcovering strip is applied. Use of clean, warm water, anatural sponge, and clean towels are recommended for this use. Itis very important to change water often to maintain cleanliness.

3.04 Clean-up Completion Upon completion of work, remove surplus materials, rubbish and debris, resulting from the wallcovering installation. Leave areas in neat, clean and orderly condition

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

STOP! PLEASE READ BEFORE USING If you have any questions about the proper installation of this product, please call your Distributor or contact your Sales Representative before proceeding.

PREPARATION OF GOODS Examine goods to assure that pattern, color, quantity and quality are as ordered. Separate goods by shade lot number and organize in roll number sequence.

PREPARATION OF SURFACE Surfaces to be covered must be clean, smooth, dry and structurally sound. Loose paint or other wallcoverings must be removed. In order to ensure maximum smoothness of installation, nail heads, nicks, gouges, and other surface imperfections should be sanded smooth and sealed. On new walls, dry wall joints should be sanded smooth and sealed. On new walls, dry wall joints should be taped, bedded and sanded smooth.

Mold and mildew require moisture in order to grow and therefore it is important to check the walls with a suitable moisture meter. Moisture content should not exceed 4%. Excessive moisture in wall needs to be corrected prior to the installation of the wallcovering. Remove any mold and mildew from existing wall and treat surfaces to inhibit future growth.

Koroseal | Vicrtex | Studios wallcovering (the “wallcoverings”) can be installed over almost any surface which has been properly prepared. Do not hang vinyl over ball point pen writing, wax crayon, ink marker, oil based stains or any foreign matter that may bleed through the vinyl. Painted surfaces should be checked for possibility of pigment bleed through. It is suggested that lead pencil be used to mark vinyl or wall as pencil marks do not bleed.

Glossy surfaces should either be sanded to dull the surface or an application of Professional R-35 heavy duty primer should be made.

If future strippability is desired, a primer must be used. Some drywall joint compounds contrast with the drywall paper surface, showing strong light and dark colored areas. Very lightly colored, light-weight wallcoverings may allow show-through due to their limited amount of opacity. Should this situation occur, we recommend that you use a primer, then Heavy Duty Clay-Based Adhesive. If after applying three (3) strips, there is some question of appearance, stop and contact your distributor.

Wall PreparationWalls must be free from dirt, grease and loose paint. Remove any coatings designed to improve clean-up since these coatings may aff ect adhesion. Glossy surfaces may require sanding or priming to help promote adhesion.

New drywall or plaster – Walls must be smooth and wiped clean to remove dust. Seal or prime walls with paint or primer that does not contain Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc). Allow paint/primer to dry in accordance with the manufacturers application instructions.

• Remove Dust and Dirt• Seal walls with paint/primer.• DO NOT use paint/primer that contains Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc)

Painted Drywall or Plaster - Test painted walls for adhesion by applying a 12” x 12” [305mm x 305mm] pieces of Palladium® Rigid Sheet in an inconspicuous area. Allow the test sheet to remain adhered for 24 hours. Remove test sheet, If paint has softened, strip the paint off the wall and reseal with a recommended paint/primer.

• Test the wall to make sure paint is compatible with adhesive.• Strip the paint off wall if adhesives softens paint after testing.

Concrete and Concrete Masonry Units – Fill surface of concrete walls with an appropriate fi ller to make it smooth. Seal or prime walls with paint or primer that does not contain Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc). Allow paint/primer to dry in accordance with the manufacturers application instructions. Unfi lled grout lines may telegraph through the sheet, especially with thinner sheet thicknesses.

• Fill concrete to make smooth.• Seal concrete with paint/primer.• DO NOT use paint/primer that contains Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc)

Non-Porous Substrates - Some non-porous substrates include metal, ceramic tile, high-pressure laminate, epoxy painted walls, vinyl wall covering (VWC) and rigid sheet. InPro Bond and XT-2000+ adhesives can be used to apply rigid sheet to securely adhered vinyl wallcovering or rigid sheet and other non-porous substrates. Adhering rigid sheet over existing sheet or VWC will increase smoke generation and fl ame spread and negate the Class A fi re rating. If you choose to do this, follow the non-porous installation instructions.


APPENDIX "B"




Cutting and Dry Fitting Sheets

When handling sheet be careful and avoid kinking the sheet. Layout sheet location on the wall marking plumb lines and level lines where needed. When laying out sheet allow a 1/16” [2mm] gap between sheet material and ceilings, fl oors, corners, door casings, window casings and between sheets. Do not install cove base directly over rigid vinyl sheet, vinyl wallcovering, Do not install cove base directly over rigid vinyl sheet, vinyl wallcovering, ceramic tile, metal or other non-porous surfaces. Overlap these materials with the cove base by 1/4” [7mm]. See Figure 1ceramic tile, metal or other non-porous surfaces. Overlap these materials with the cove base by 1/4” [7mm]. See Figure 1.Cut sheet material with a metal straight edge and a sharp utility knife. Cut the sheet using multiple passes. Cut openings in the sheet for outlets and other objects located on the wall. Dry fi t the sheet to the wall by holding it in place on the wall. When installing multiple sheets in an area, dry fi t all sections. Do not install sheet material too close to heat registers, radiators and other equipment that may produce excessive heat. Sheet installation in these areas may cause de-lamination or bubbling of the sheet.

• DO NOT kink the sheet when handling.• Mark plumb lines and level lines on wall.• Allow 1/16” [2mm] between sheet and ceilings, fl oors, walls, casings

and other sheets.• Do NOT install cove base directly over rigid sheet;Overlap sheet with cove base by 1/4" [7mm].

• Use a straight edge and sharp utility knife to cut sheet material.• Cut sheet using multiple passes with the utility knife.• DO NOT install sheet too close to heat sources.• Dry fi t the sheet to the wall.

Adhesive Application InPro Bond/XT-2000+

Apply adhesive only to the wall surface. Do not apply adhesive to the back of the sheet. After adhesive is applied it will need to cure before applying the sheet. Application temperature: After following the steps to acclimate the materials, maintain a constant temperature between 65°F and 80°F [18°-27°C] with an indoor humidity level below 80%. Use a 1/8” x 1/8” [4mm x 4mm] V-notched trowel with ½” [13mm] spaces between the V-grooves to apply adhesive (see fi gure2). Apply adhe-sive to the entire area where the sheet is to be installed. Remove any excess adhesive from unwanted surfaces with a damp cloth before the adhesive has cured. Cured adhesive is nearly impossible to remove. Do not let adhesive dry in the notches of the trowel. This will change the application rate of the trowel. Application rate is 150 square feet per gallon [3.7sq. M/per liter]with InPro Trowel #545.

• Allow materials to acclimate following the recommendations stated earlier.• Use a V-notched trowel with 1/8” x 1/8” [4mm x 4mm]

V-notches spaced ½” [13mm] apart. (InPro item #545)• Apply adhesive only on wall.• Apply adhesive to the entire wall area where sheet will be installed.• Remove any excess adhesive before it has cured.• Clean trowel so notches do not get clogged.• Application rate is 150 square feet per gallon [3.7 sq. M/per liter] withInPro Trowel #545

APPENDIX "B"




Adhesive Curing, Porous Substrate

Temperature and humidity levels will aff ect the time it takes for adhesive to cure. Under ideal conditions cure time should be 45-60 minutes. It could be signifi cantly longer, but not more than 3 hours. When fi rst applied the adhesive is white. As it cures,it becomes translucent and tacky. Install the sheet material when 60-75% of the adhesive has become translucent or whenit becomes tacky and does not transfer to your fi nger. Fans will increase air movement and reduce cure time. The installer is

responsible for determining the cure time of the adhesive, based on job site conditions. Do a test installation if needed.

• Adjust cure time for temperature and humidity level.• Allow adhesive to become 60-75% translucent or let adhesive become tacky and not transfer to your fi nger when

touched.• Use fans to reduce cure time.• The installer is responsible for determining the cure time of the adhesive, based on job site conditions.

• Do a test installation, if needed.

Adhesive Curing, Non-Porous Substrate (follow these steps for rolled sheet)

Some non-porous substrates include metal, ceramic tile, high-pressure laminate, epoxy painted walls, and vinyl wall covering. When applying adhesives to these substrates, moisture in the adhesive will not be absorbed by the substrate. Longer cure times are required. Allow the adhesive to become 90% translucent. Let the adhesive become tacky and not transfer to your fi nger when touched. Temperature and humidity levels will aff ect the time it takes for adhesive to cure. Cure times may range from 1 hour but not more than 3 hours. Fans will increase air movement and reduce cure time. The installer is responsible

for determining the cure time of the adhesive, based on job site conditions. Do a test installation if needed. Align the sheet perfectly, since the longer cure time makes the adhesive behave like contact cement. Readjusting the sheet may be diffi cult or impossible.

• Allow adhesive to cure longer (at least an hour but not more than three hours)• Allow the adhesive become 90% translucent and let adhesive become tacky and not transfer to your fi nger whentouched.• Use fans to reduce cure time.• The installer is responsible for determining the cure time of the adhesive, based on job site conditions.

• Do a test installation, if needed.• Position the sheet perfectly, since adhesive behaves like contact cement.


APPENDIX "B"




Positioning Sheet

Wipe the back of the sheet to remove any dust. After the adhesive has cured, position the sheet on the wall aligning the edges with plumb lines or level lines. Hold sheets back from ceiling, fl oors, corners, casings and other sheets by 1/16” [2mm] to allow for expansion (see fi gure 3). If needed reposition the sheet on the wall by carefully pulling it back and re-aligning it to the wall. Use an extension roller (InPro item # 333) to fi rmly embed the sheet into the adhesive (see fi gure 4). Apply heavy body pressure to every square inch of sheet, starting at the center and working to the edges, making sure it is bonded se-curely to the wall.

• Wipe the back of sheet to remove dust.• Position sheet on wall• Allow 1/16” [2mm] gaps for expansion.• Reposition sheet before rolling if needed.• Roll entire sheet with extension roller, starting at the center and working to the edges.

Trim Pieces (see fi gure 5)

If using trim pieces with an InPro Bond or XT-2000 installation, install the fi rst sheet on the wall. Cut trim pieces with a metal straight edge and sharp utility knife. Slide vertical divider bars or inside corners on the next sheet to be installed. Overlap the edge of the sheet on the wall with the divider bar or inside corner. With aluminum divider bars, slide sheet into the divider bar. When using top caps and vertical divider bars, notch the back of the top cap where it intersects with the divider bar (see fi g-ure 6). Install the top cap by sliding it on the top edge of the sheet after the sheet is in place. Roll all trim pieces and the entire sheet with an extension roller (InPro item # 333). Stainless Steel Trim - Cut stainless steel trim with a hack saw or similar. Tape exposed surfaces with painters tape to help protect it when cutting.

• Cut trim pieces with a sharp utility knife.• Overlap trim piece over the fi rst sheet installed.• Notch the back of the top cap where it intersects the vertical divider bar.• Slide top cap on edge of sheet after sheet is on wall.• Roll all trim pieces and entire sheet with extension roller.• Cut stainless steel trim with a hack saw or similar.

Contact Cement Application

Apply 3M Fastbond 30 Contact Cement to the back of the sheet and on the wall with a smooth foam paint roller or brush. Let the contact cement completely dry on both surfaces. Contact cement should not transfer to your hand when touched. If areas remain wet, adhesion problems will occur. Drying time will vary depending on the temperature and the humidity level. Drying time can be as little as ½-hour, but could be signifi cantly longer depending on conditions. Once the contact cement is dry, apply the sheet to the wall within 4 hours. If using trim pieces, cut and slide them on the sheet before coating the back of the sheet with contact cement. Remove any excess contact cement with a water dampened cloth before the contact cement dries.

• Apply contact cement to the back of sheet and the wall• Let both surfaces completely dry.• Adjust drying time for the jobsite conditions.• Once dry apply the sheet to the wall within 4 hours.• If using trim pieces slide them on the back of sheet before coating with contact cement.• Remove excess contact cement before it dries.• Coverage - 680 sq. ft./gallon

Positioning Sheet (Contact Cement)

Carefully position the sheet on the wall, by aligning the edges of the sheet to the level/plumb lines. Hold sheets back from ceilings, fl oors, corners, casings and other sheets by 1/16” [2mm] to allow for expansion. Do not install cove base directly over Do not install cove base directly over rigid vinyl sheet, vinyl wallcovering, ceramic tile, metal or other non-porous surfaces. Overlap these materials with the cove rigid vinyl sheet, vinyl wallcovering, ceramic tile, metal or other non-porous surfaces. Overlap these materials with the cove base by 1/4”. [7mm]. base by 1/4”. [7mm]. Once the sheet makes contact with the wall it will be permanently bonded. Repositioning the sheet will be impossible without damaging the sheet and/or the wall. The use of “paper slip sheets” between the rigid sheet material and the wall may help with the positioning of sheet material. After positioned, roll all trim pieces and the entire sheet with an extension roller (InPro item # 333). Start at the center and work to the edges of the sheet.

• Carefully position sheet to wall.• Use “Slip Sheets” to help position sheet material.• Allow 1/16” [2mm] gaps for expansion.• Do NOT install cove base directly over rigid sheet; overlap sheet with cove base by 1/4".[7mm]• Roll trim pieces and the entire sheet with an extension roller, starting at the center and working to the edges.

Vinylseal Color Matched Caulk

Use Vinylseal to fi ll in the joints between sheets. Apply masking tape along both edges of the joint. Cut the spout on the tube at a 45° angle. Apply the color matched caulk to the joint. With a putty knife or fi nger, remove excess caulk from the joint. Immediately after applying the caulk remove the painters tape. If sinking occurs, reapply Vinylseal following the same steps. Remove unwanted caulk, before it cures, with a water dampened cloth.

• Apply masking tape on the edges of the joint.• Apply caulk to joint and remove excess with putty knife or fi nger.• Remove painters tape before caulk cures.• Repeat caulk application if sinking occurs.• Remove unwanted caulk before it cures.

PROTECTIVE WALLCOVERINGS / SHEET

Koroseal Wall Protection Systems Traffic Patterns Wallcovering Installation Instructions

1. Semi-rigid Traffic Patterns Wallcovering is intended for use only in temperature-controlled environments. It must be installed at a constanttemperature between 65ºF (18˚C) and 75ºF (24˚C). This constant temperature must be maintained 24 hours-a-day for minimum of 48 hoursbefore, during, and after installation. Do not install if relative humidity is greater than 80%. Remove dust, dirt, grease, oil, loose paint, scale,and any existing wallcovering. Resurface uneven wall surfaces and damaged walls. Wall surfaces should be smooth, clean, well-sealed,and dry. Wall moisture content should not exceed 4%.

2. Locate and install KOROSEAL’s Traffic Patterns Wallcovering in accordance with architectural drawings and specifications. When required,KOROSEAL shop drawings should be used in conjunction with these documents.

3. Lay out work to be completed, including all component work. Check material for any damage that may have incurred during shipmentand/or handling at job site.

4. Note that pattern of wallcovering is oriented lengthwise. Please review, as installation may require that pattern be applied verticallyrequiring that the wallcovering be applied in a “soldiered” manner. Also, depending upon the required height, a soldiered application mayoffer the best material yield.

5. Be aware that slight but detectable shade variations may occur within a production order. For best results, the sheets should be installed ina sequence that is as close as possible to the production sequence. Consequently, they are packaged in sequence and each is identifiedon its backside with its position within production. They are typically produced in batches of ten and the identifying number will be batchnumber – batch sheet number, i.e. (batch) 1 – (sheet) 1, 1-2, 1-3 up to 1-10, then (batch) 2-1, 2-2, and so on. Also, this identifying numberwill always be located at the leading end of each sheet.

6. If hanging with long edges of sheets abutting, before doing so, examine pattern for color uniformity and repeat in design. Pattern mayrequire registering or reversing in order to ensure color and/or pattern uniformity. Also, use the full width of material to the greatest extentpossible for the most satisfactory results. If you have questions about the proper method of hanging a particular pattern, please contact yourdistributor or sales representative before proceeding.

7. In a proper, temperature-controlled environment, edge-to-edge butt-seaming is recommended. However, the suitability of the factory edgesis not guaranteed. Field trimming and/or double-cutting may be required. Also, 1/16” gaps should be maintained at side corners,doorframes, window frames, etc. Gaps can be treated with color-matched caulk. Edge, seam, and corner moldings may be used as part ofinstallation. When using any of these components, cut each piece to the appropriate length and assemble appropriately with regard to typeof adhesive used.

8. Fastbond™ 30-NF Contact Cement: Apply contact cement with brush or roller to both wallcovering and substrate. (See manufacturer’sinstructions and precautions on side of container.) Additional contact cement may be required if substrate is not properly sealed. Allowthe contact cement to dry completely. Application of sheet to the substrate must occur and be completed within four hours. Once contactcement has dried, use a slip-sheet to properly position sheet on substrate. Remove slip-sheet carefully while removing any entrapped air untilentire surface of wallcovering has contacted the substrate. A level should be used in conjunction with application of sheets to ensure properalignment.

9. XT-2000+™ Mastic Adhesive: Apply adhesive to substrate with 1/16” (1.59mm) x 1/16” (1.59mm) square-notched trowel. (Seemanufacturer’s instructions and precautions on side of container.) Allow approximately 45 minutes (or longer, depending on temperatureand humidity) for adhesive to become tacky and “leg” between finger and surface when touched and pulled away. Do not install into wetadhesive, but do not allow it to become too dry either. Properly position sheet to substrate, and carefully/methodically smooth into adhesiveremoving any entrapped air until entire surface has contacted the substrate. A level should be used in conjunction with application of sheetsto ensure proper alignment.

10. 10. Interlock’s Spray-Lock FRP Adhesive: Spray adhesive onto substrate obtaining thorough coverage. (See manufacturer’s includedinstructions.) Allow adhesive to dry until there is no adhesive transfer when lightly touched. Do not install into wet adhesive, but do not allowit to remain open longer than two hours. Properly position sheet to substrate and carefully/methodically smooth into adhesive removing anyentrapped air until entire surface has contacted the substrate. Roll with heavy-pressure roller to complete bonding. A level should be used inconjunction with application of sheets to ensure proper alignment.

11. With all three bonding methods, after sheet is attached to substrate, apply heavy pressure to sheet with a high-pressure roller, thoroughlyrolling from center area out.

12. Permanent building lights should be available and operating during installation. If, after applying three pieces of wallcovering, there is somequestion of appearance or adequacy of the application,stop and contact your distributor orsalesrepresentative.

13. Traffic Patterns’ characteristics are similar to our Korogard Protective Wallcovering. For additional information, please consult our“Installation Manual.” If there are any questions, please call your local KOROSEAL representative.

CORNER GUARDS

Surface Adhered Corner Guard

Warning: Surface Adhered Corner Guards, particularly the adhesive-backed models, may not adhere properly at installation due to a variety of field conditions beyond our control. Korogard Wall Protection Systems accepts no liability, nor expresses or implies any warranty regarding the effectiveness of the application/installation of these products. We recommend a trial installation to determine the general effectiveness of same, although adhesion problems with individual Corner Guards may still occur.

1. Locate and install Korogard Surface Adhered Corner Guard in accordance with architectural drawings and specifications.

2. Lay out work to be completed at the base of the substrate. Check the material for any damage that may have occurred duringshipment and/or handling at job site.

3. Prior to installation, allow Corner Guards to reach room temperature. Inspect wall corners to confirm sound construction and repair ifnecessary. Thoroughly clean wall surfaces to assure proper Corner Guard adhesion. CAUTION: Other cleaning agents maydamage certain types of wall finishes. Use the appropriate manufacturer-recommended cleaning agent and proceed with care.

4. If the wall surface is unusual in composition and/or texture or exhibits other characteristics that may jeopardize the effectiveness ofthe installation method, please contact your local Korogard representative for assistance before proceeding with installation.

5. Dry-fit the Corner Guard to the wall corner to assure proper height and fit.

6. Korogard Surface Adhered Corner Guards are provided in specified heights with or without factory-applied adhesive backing. If noadhesive has been provided, use only contact adhesive, Loctite PL 200 Construction Adhesive, or Liquid Nails Tub Surrounds &Shower Walls Adhesive and follow manufacturer’s recommended procedures.

7. If adhesive-backed Corner Guards have been provided, carefully peel back and thoroughly remove the release liner from back ofCorner Guard. Do not allow exposed adhesive to contact substances that will adhere and contaminate the adhesive surface.

8. Holding the Korogard Surface Adhered Corner Guard at an angle, carefully place and seat its bottom end against the corner at theproper location. Using care, fit the Corner Guard to the corner, progressing from bottom to top, applying pressure with fingers andpalm to assure that it is seated precisely on the corner. If Corner Guards are full height, it is best that two people perform thisoperation.Note: Repositioning after contact is detrimental to the adhesive bond.

9. After placement, inspect the Corner Guard from top to bottom to confirm proper fit and surface contact. Using a high-pressure roller,firmly and thoroughly roll both wings of the Corner Guard to assure full and complete adhesion.

10. Wipe down installed Korogard Surface Adhered Corner Guard with soap and water to remove any dirt or grime.

11. If there are any questions, please call your local Korogard representative.


APPENDIX "B"

1. Examine goods to assure quantity and quality are asordered. Lay out the work to be completed, including allparts, along the base of the wall. The parts will includethose supplied by Walltalkers and those the installer mustsupply. Walltalkers supplies the extruded aluminum trim andsteel mounting clips in the quantities ordered. The installermust supply the hardware, #10 X 1-1/2” truss head sheetmetal screws, for most installations. Masonry anchors andmanufacturer specified hardware should be used for concreteand block walls. One screw and/or anchor is required foreach mounting clip; clips are installed 16” on center.

2. If aluminum tray is also being installed, do so beforeinstalling trim. Determine the location of the trim on the wall.Mark the inside dimensions on the wall with somethingthat will not permanently damage that surface. (Ex. If thematerial being framed is a walltalkers dry erase surface,use a dry erase marker to make the level and plumblines.) Install the dry erase material and then overlap theedges with the trim. Overlapping will ensure a good edgeappearance on the writing surface.

3. Using the wall measurements, measure, mark, and cutthe aluminum trim pieces to size. Use a miter saw with afine-tooth carbide tip blade. Most installations will require afull-length marker tray, terminating at the outside edges of thedry erase material. See diagram below. In those cases, threepieces of trim will be required; the top and two side pieces.The bottom of the side pieces will terminate flush with thetopside of the marker tray. The cut edges of trim can also bemitered to 45°angles, if desired.

4. Install the steel clips 1/16” outside the markings on the wall.The clips should be installed every 16” on center, makingsolid contact with the wall stud, with the #10 X 1-1/2”screws. If the clip screws do not contact the studs, as withsome of the vertically mounted pieces, use plastic wallanchors. The angled side of the clips, i.e. the flat beveledside, should always be mounted toward the ceiling onhorizontal runs, while the rounded edge faces the floor. Forvertical runs, the angled side faces the material being framed.

5. Install the trim pieces to the clips. Place the aluminum trim overthe angled side of the steel clips. Hold the face of the trayat a 45°angle from the wall. Hook the trim piece over thebeveled edges of the clips and apply pressure with the healof the hand to the side not locked in; trim will snap into thelocked position. Repeat the same steps with all pieces of trim.

6. If a splice is required, follow the detail below. The splicedpieces of aluminum require a clean right angle cut for thejoint to have a good appearance. Mount a steel clip on thewall at the splice location; one half of the clip should line upinside each piece of trim.
