NAPCO INLAY INSTALLATION
Inlay Kit Includes:
Inlay
Adhesive with screw-on nozzle (for capping after use)
Disposable gloves – 1 pair
Plastic notched spreader
Other Materials Needed for Installation:
Rubber Roller (optional)
Sponge
Soft scrub brush
Pencil
Cleaning product for tub
Isopropyl Alcohol
80 grit wet/dry sandpaper
Installation Instructions:
1. Dry fit the tub/shower inlay first to ensure a good fit.
2. Cover the floor, toilet seat, etc. with drop cloths to ensure that you do not get
adhesive on anything in the room.
3. Thoroughly clean the tub/shower bottom. For textured bottoms, use a soft
scrub brush to clean into the texture.
4. Rinse the tub/shower well and dry the tub/shower bottom completely.
5. Lay the tub/shower inlay in place and make sure it is straight and centered.
With a pencil, lightly trace the outline of the inlay onto the tub/shower
bottom. Remove the inlay.
6. When installing inlay onto a previously refinished tub or shower bottom, the
existing coating must be adhering well to the original fixture. If the coating is
peeling or flaking, it must be stripped off to ensure a good bond with the
inlay.
7. Wet sand the damaged bottom up to the pencil line with 80 wet/dry sandpaper.
Sand inside the pencil line only. (For porcelain and ceramic use etch and sand)
8. Dry the tub/shower bottom and inspect. The surface must be clean, dry,
sanded, and dust-free. Sand the under-side of inlay (smooth side) with 80 grit.
Clean under-side with isopropyl to remove any sanding dust.
9. Wear a respirator mask, gloves, and goggles when working with the adhesive.
