HOW TO USE PALCO.LOC REDWOOD INTERIOR PANELING VERSATILITY

As shown in the photographs, this paneling can be applied vertically, horizontally, or diagonally which particularly creates an accent wall. Can also be used on ceilings. Can have a saw-textured face or smooth face. Should not be used on exteriors.

Application

Nailing: Nail to furring strips of blocking spaced 2' or less. Can use 4d finish nails for blind nailing through tongue and for face nailing. lf face nailed, colored nails can eliminate counter' sinking and nail-hole filling. Staples may be used in lieu of nails.

Gluing: Paneling can be easily applied to dry flat surfaces following adhesive manufacturer's directions.

Finishing

Although redwood takes and holds finishes better than other woods, redwood requires no finishes on surfaces away lrom grease, moisture and dirt, as on ceilings and accent panels. Left unfinished, the paneling will gradually darken in color. To protect and minimize color change, use a dull or satin lacouer, or a clear sealer. A number of clear sealers are available, are economical, and are easy to apply.

In areas subject to soiling and moisture such as kitchens and bathrooms, apply lacquer or clear sealer. For a washable finish, apply one or two coats of flat or semi-gloss varnish. lf other color hues or tones are desired, penetrating stains are recommended. Any color or hue can be achieved. To help retain the initial color, mix small amount of properly colored pigment or compatible semi-transparent stain into a clear sealer.
