SEALANT & ADHESIVE
Small holes can be drilled with a twist drill, but the cutting edge MUST be backed off with an oil
stone (the sharp edge dulled). Large holes must be drilled with a hole saw.
Maximum drill size : 12 mm. Drill speeds: 6 mm x 1800 RPM ; 12 mm x 900 RPM.
If for any reason the Duracryl requires cutting, use a fine tooth hacksaw and proceed with caution.
Edges can be smoothed with a second-cut file and medium-fine sandpaper. If the surface of the
Duracryl happens to be damaged, it can be restored by polishing with an appropriate compound.

MARKING ADHESIVE PATTERN
For corner contour shower walls, the pattern must be marked on both wall board and Duracryl liner.
Refer to figures below for both patterns: • Corner Contour PLUS Wall -
• Corner Contour Wall -
At this stage it is essential that the back side of the Duracryl wall and the surface of the wall board
are wiped clean with a damp cloth. This will ensure that all dust is removed from both surfaces and
provide a clean surface for the adhesive. Allow both surfaces to dry before adhesive application.
