We recommend that youinstall the rigid profiles priorto hanging Composition.Staples can be used onsuitable substrates. Forconcrete surfaces useconstruction adhesive - thismust be used as permanufacturers instructions.

Using a piece ofComposition width,measure the spacebetween each H-Spline andmark where the H-Spline isto go, then staple the H-Spline in place.

Cut AnutoneSlim to therequired drop sizes. To avoidany variation in pile direction,ensure all drops are hung inthe direction. Use the arrowson the back of the product toensure you have the directionalarrows going the same way,either up or down.

Using the adhesive roller,apply the adhesive onto thewall - not the product.Leave a gap of 70mmeither side of the rigidprofiles to allow for tuckingthe product in.

Place the drops on the walloverlapping at the top andbottom.

Using the hand roller, rollthe product to ensureadequate adhesion of theproduct to the wall.

Tuck the product into the endcaps and top caps.

Using External Corners

Before you staple the external corner in place,youmust measure the space required using a piece ofComposition to allow the product to be tucked underthe profile.

Using Internal Corners

Cut the internal profile to size and staple in place.Using the adhesive roller, apply the adhesive ontothe wall, leaving a 70mm gap either side of theinternal corner.
