General Installation Notes

Any adhesives, sealants, ﬁllers or paint used must be compatible with the material that is being installed (see manufacturer’s recommendations in the

Finishing and Adhesives section below). Always use corrosion-resistant mechanical nails or screws along with manufacturer’s recommended adhesive

product when installing all Fypon products. This combination provides a secure, long-lasting bond. Countersink all fasteners about

” and ﬁll with

product compatible ﬁller. Exterior installations should be ﬁnished using a manufacturer’s recommended caulk to prevent water inﬁltration behind

siding, windows and doors. Some exterior installations, in particular new construction before siding is applied, may require a J-channel and/or

ﬂashing to prevent water inﬁltration. Installers must determine which installation technique is best for the speciﬁc situation.

Finishing and Adhesives

Polyurethane (PUR) – Fypon polyurethane products are factory primed. Depending on product location, always use interior/exterior-grade, PUR

compatible adhesives, sealants, and ﬁllers when installing Fypon products. Consult the manufacturer’s recommendations for your particular

climate and the substrate you are installing to.

Cellular PVC – Depending on product location, always use interior/exterior-grade, PVC compatible adhesives, sealants, and ﬁllers when installing

Fypon products. Consult the manufacturer’s recommendations for your particular climate and the substrate you are installing to. If painting is

desired, a 100% acrylic latex paint with a Light Reﬂectance Value (LRV) of 55% or higher must be used. Applying paint with an LRV of 54% or

lower will void the warranty.

IMPORTANT:

Please read these installation guidelines thoroughly before beginning installation. Please note that these guidelines are provided only to assist with the installation of Fypon moulding
