Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: How do I cut the FP Ultra Lite panels?
- A: The panels can be easily cut from the back (foam side) using a utility knife, similar to drywall, or with a circular saw fitted with a masonry blade.
-
Q: What is the installation process for the FP panels?
- A: The panels can be adhered using rigid foam adhesive (such as PL 300 or Clear Mastic) and/or fasteners. It is recommended to fasten them every 12 to 16 inches into the foundation.
-
Q: How do I cover seams between the panels?
- A: For aggregate panels, matching stone can be hand-seeded into caulked seams. For stucco-textured panels, seams can be caulked with concrete grey or clear caulk.
-
Q: How are corners handled during installation?
- A: Corner pieces can be created by cutting the panel ends at an angle. Alternatively, small pieces of the panel can be used to cover the corners neatly.
