UNBOXING
Open the package carefully! Inserting sharp objectsinto the package can damage
the bass traps. Avoid using long, sharp tools for opening the package!
REMOVE PRODUCTS FROM PACKAGING
Carefully remove the products from the package. Bass traps come with two elements per package. Take care when separating the elements from each other, especially with melamine foam models.
DETERMINE THE POSITION
While determining the mounting positions, it helps to mark the walls and ceiling using a level and tape measure. The angle between the walls must be verified prior to installation.
PREPARE THE CAULK GUN
Carefully open the glue cartridge using a utility knife. Take care to point the knife away from your body. Thread the included nozzle onto the opening. Insert the cartridge into the caulk gun. For thicker lines of glue, you can use the knife to enlarge the opening of the nozzle.
APPLY THE GLUE
Apply the glue to the back of the bass trap in an even line along the outer edges. It also helps to apply some glue to the center of the bass trap in an X pattern, in order to hold the center firmly in place on both walls. Depending on the condition of the walls and corners, custom cuts may need to be made.
LET GLUE SET FOR 5 MINUTES
Before mounting the bass trap on the wall, let the glue set for 5 minutes on the element. This ensures that it can develop its full holding strength.
INSTALL THE BASS TRAP
Press the bass trap into the corner in the marked position and apply even pressure to the lines of glue for 2 minutes. Repeat the process for any additional elements and stack them on top of each other. That’s it!
