PROCEDURE

• Verify that the wall is dry, straight, and plumb. If it is deformed, it will be necessary to install

furring strips.

• Consider whether it is necessary to remove the cornice and baseboard. The paneling is

12 mm thick.

VERTICAL INSTALLATION HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

Define the installation pattern

Measure width and height, defining whether

the cornice and baseboard will be replaced

.with paneling.

For installation on entire wall

Measure width and height, defining whether the

baseboard will be replaced with paneling.

For half-wall installation

• To calculate the amount of paneling you will need:.

- Measure the length and height of the surface to be covered.

- Divide by 0.14 m2, the area covered by a single piece.

- Add 5% to 10% for “waste,” which will depend on the installation pattern.

• To calculate the number of pieces needed for the height to be covered, keep in mind that one

piece is 115 mm high and 20 pieces are 2,300 mm high.

Tools

• Miter saw (ideally telescoping).

• Jigsaw.

• Circular or table saw.

• Drill with 8 mm bit for concrete and

10 mm bit for wood.

• Handsaw.

• Standard or laser level.

• Stud finder.

• Tape measure.

• Pneumatic nailer.

• Cordless drill driver.

• Caulk gun.

• Chalk reel, cord (twine) and pencil.

Materials

• VESTO Paneling.

• Paneling adhesive.

• Clips.

• 1 x 2 furring strip boards.

• Shims.

• Cornices and baseboards.

• Cap or corner moulding.

• Paint.

• Wood filler.

• Paint for baseboard, cornice and

corner moulding.

Safety Equipment

• Dust mask.

• Safety goggles and gloves.

GENERAL MEASUREMENTS

• Length : 1,220.00 mm

• Thickness : 12.00 mm

• Width : 133.35 mm

• Tongue : 115.00 mm

• Texturing : 1.00 mm

SPECIFIC MEASUREMENTS

Important:

• The face of the paneling is textured, while

the back is smooth.

• Install on vertical walls only.

Do not use on angled walls or ceilings.

• VESTO Paneling cannot be installed on

exteriors or in high-humidity areas like

kitchens or bathrooms.

• The wall must be dry. Check for any signs

of moisture before beginning.

• Can be directly installed over drywall,

painted or primed fiber cement, plywood

or OSB.

• For brick or concrete walls, furring

strips must be installed underneath

the paneling.

• Condition the product for

48 hours in the room where it will

be installed.

PROCEDURE

• Ideally, a telescoping miter saw should be

used for cutting. Position the piece face

up, score it without going through the

piece, and then cut through it completely,

reducing the risk of waste.

• Cross-cutting will always deliver cleaner,

more precise results. Place the cut

ends of your pieces against the edges of

the wall.

• You can adjust pieces so that the end

pieces are of the same width. For the best

look, finish with a wider piece at the top

and leave cut edges on the bottom.

PROCEDURE

• Remove the baseboard, cornice and

device boxes, shutting off the power

beforehand.

• Installing the furring strip boards

- Mark out the location of the 1 x 2

furring strip boards, spacing them

40.5 cm apart.

- Start with the top and bottom pieces,

checking the plumb with a level. The

intermediate pieces should be aligned.

Adjust with spacers if needed. It is

very important for the pieces to be

firmly supported.

- For installation on a wood substrate,

attach the pieces with 3.5 x 60 mm

screws. For installation on brick or

concrete walls, attach with 8 mm plastic

dowels and 5 x 60 mm (# 10 x 2 1/2”)

screws. Space clips no more than

40 cm apart.

• Installing the paneling

- Install from left to right and from the

bottom up, leaving a 1 cm separation

between the edge of the paneling and

the floor, adjoining walls and ceiling.

- With longitudinal joints, the ends of the

pieces must be attached to furring

or framing.

- To place the first row, mark out

a vertical plumb line.

- Apply a strip of adhesive on the framing

and on the back of the panel. Hold the

panel against the wall and secure it with

25 mm brad nails applied with

a pneumatic nailer, or with 3.5 x 25 mm

wood screws applied with a cordless

drill driver.

- Adjust the width of the final run,

trimming it down with a circular saw.

• Clean up adhesive residue with

the product recommended by

the manufacturer.

• If there are device boxes or electrical

outlets, shut off the power, remove

faceplates and brackets, and mark the

position of the outlet on the piece. Score,

then cut the rectangle out of the panel.

You can use a scrap piece as a guide.
