SURFACE MOUNTING METHOD

SURFACE PREPARATION

Temperature and environmental concerns:

• Ideal application environment is 70-100ºF in 50% humidity or less.
• Minimum application temperature: 50ºF
• This temperature and humidity should be maintained for 72 hours after application for maximum holding force

Using a 50/50 alcohol mix, thoroughly clean the backside of the fixture and the surface area where fixture will be installed. Allow 5 minutes to dry

For porous materials (Wood, Brick, Concrete etc.) apply two layers of paint or primer to the surface. This will help create a better bonding surface for these materials.This can be purchased from local hardware store.
