STEP 1

MEASURING AND MARKING

Nureva WhisperTek single installation guide February 2016

Measuring and marking

Set up the laser lever and project a line 1" above the projected image.
Find the overall centerline of the system. The surface is 124" (314 cm) long and should extend 1" past the projected
image on either side. Once you have found the centerline, use a straight edge to make a 2-inch mark that extends
above the laser level line.

Peel the adhesive liner

On the front of the surface, use a pencil to make a small mark at the top of the surface on the surface
centerline.
Carefully flip the surface so the adhesive liner is facing up. Fold down a 6-inch wide horizontal strip
on one side along the top of the surface from the outside edge to where the liner is cut in the center.
Fold down a corner of the liner on the other side of the cut line.

Align the surface

Do not let the exposed adhesive touch the wall during this step.

Align the top edge of the surface with the laser level and the centerline mark on the front of the
surface with the system centerline mark on the wall.

Hold the surface in place

Adhere the top of the surface

Once the surface is aligned, person A holds the

surface firmly against the wall.

Person B presses the exposed adhesive

against the wall ensuring it is level
with the laser line then firmly smooths
the top of the surface against the wall.

Remove the adhesive liner

While person A holds one side of the surface, person B pulls the bottom of the surface away from
the wall to remove the release liner. Do not bend the surface at a sharp angle as this can cause
kinking.

Begin adhering the surface to the wall

Starting from the top of the surface and moving downward, person B begins to press the surface against the
wall with overlapping up-and-down strokes to prevent bubbles from forming under the surface.

Adhere the second half of the surface

Once the first half is adhered, person A pulls the surface away from the wall from the side carefully while avoiding
kinking the surface in the center. Person B goes behind the surface to remove the adhesive liner from the second half of
the surface.
Person A holds the outside edge of the surface while person B smooths it against the wall using up-and-down strokes.
