Installation

  1. Align the center "V" nose with the center of the joint and apply pressure starting from one end and working toward the other end.
  2. Once the Plastic Joint cover has been started the face can be hammered into position with the adjacent surfaces using a hammer on a protected surface, such as a wood block, to prevent the marring of the surface.
  3. After installation, the joint cover can be painted to match existing surfaces, or left alone.

**If joints are less than 1/2 inch, it is advisable to cut the vertical leg back and to attach it using a construction adhesive. Follow glue manufacturers recommendations for installation procedures.

**For joints larger than 1 inch construction adhesive can be used in conjunction with the fastener leg for a more secure connection.
