CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Do not use adhesive sealant to secure the counter material to
the bath. Adhesive sealant will permanently bond the counter material to the bath making
separation difficult and costly. Instead, use silicone sealant or caulk which will ease future
maintenance or removal of the counter material.
Clean the rim of the bath.
NOTICE: The bead of silicone sealant or caulk must be placed a minimum of 2" (5.1 cm) away from the
inside well edge of the rim.
Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant or caulk to all areas where the rim and counter material
meet.
Align and properly position the counter material over the bath.
Press the counter firmly onto the bath.
Temporarily set weights on the counter material. This will hold the counter material in place while
the silicone sealant dries.
Apply a continuous bead of clear silicone sealant where the rim and the counter material meet.
Install the faucet trim according to the manufacturer's instructions.
