INSTALLATION
INTERNAL CORNERS
Cut to fit into the corner. Hang the remaining off-cut to a plumb line on the adjacent wall, trimming to fit in corner. Trim any areas of high relief in the corner at 45° angle to fit.
EXTERNAL CORNERS
For gently rounded corners, Lincrusta can be smoothed round in one piece. Where the angle is sharp, cut the Lincrusta to finish flush at the corner. Hang the remaining off-cut to a plumb line on adjacent wall, equal to the minimum width of off-cut. Fill any gaps at the external corner using linseed putty.
1. Plan your start and finish points in the room to minimize wastage, and plumb your first length
2. Match each length where necessary. Cut individual lengths to size adding 50mm (2”) at the top and bottom for trimming.
3. Trim off the selvedge by undercutting the edges using a knife and straight edge, taking care to avoid edge damage. Refer to table on reverse for details of recommended trim measurement for individual designs.
4. Sponge the back with warm water and leave to soak for 20-30 minutes. For best results place lengths back to back while soaking. Soaking allows for expansion and aids application of adhesive.
5. After soaking, wipe the back with a dry sponge to remove excess water
6. Apply Lincrusta Adhesive to the back using a 50-75mm (2-3") synthetic bristle paint brush. A roller can be used for larger areas.
7. Apply length to the surface and smooth down using a 178mm (7") felt roller, working from the middle to the outer edges expelling all air bubbles
8. To form lower edge, mark Lincrusta at each side, level with top of skirting or dado. Place cutting board behind Lincrusta leaning against wall, and cut between pencil marks using knife and straight edge. Repeat at top.
9. Sponge off any surplus adhesive from the surface.
