IMPORTANT

INFORMATION

SHOULD

YOU

CHOOSE

TO

PAINT

YOUR

GRILLES

Because

of

its

ultra-thin

profile,

the

Vanishing

Series

Sheer-Grille"'

requires

a

specific

painting

procedure

to

ensure

smooth,

even

coverage.

The

grille

scrim

and

perforated

grille

come

assembled

and

require

no

disassembly.

Paint

Recommendation

We

highly

recommend

you

use

a

can

of

spray

paint

matched

to

the

wall

color

you

want

the

Sheer-Grilles

to

blend

with.

Important

Note:

Never

use

a

brush

or

roller

to

paint

the

grilles,

as

this

will

clog

the

perf

holes.

To

paint

the

Sheer-Grille

1.

Elevate

the

Sheer-Grille

off

of

aflat

surface

.

This

will

ensure

even

coverage

of

the

grille

frame

and

make

it

easier

to

pick

up.

Mounting

Idea:

Two

spray

can

caps

will

raise

the

grille

high

enough.

2.

Hold

the

spray

paint

about

12"

from

the

grille

and

at

a

45°

angle.
