3. Tape one edge of the template with masking tape and unroll it. Level the template and tape the other edge.

|
5. Insert the studs into the holes on the back of each letter. |
|
6. Place letters in holes on wall before applying silicone to verify position. Adjust as necessary. Now fill the drill holes in the wall of the first letter with silicone. |
7. Push the tube of silicone over each stud on the first letter in order to evenly coat it with adhesive. |

8. Push the letter into the drill holes using a shim to assure the proper standoff of the letter from the wall. Repeat 3 through 8 for the rest of the letters. |

Plastic Letters - Pad Installation: |
1. Clean the installation surface first. Position the spacing tape on the wall and secure one end with masking tape. Unroll, level and tape the other end. Spacing tapes show the general position of each letter only and are available free upon request. |
|
2. Apply silicone to all of the pads on the first letter. Position the letter on the wall where indicated on the spacing tape. Tape the letter to the wall with several strips of masking tape. |
|
3. Adjust as needed; push letter against wall to insure good adhesive bond. Continue with the remainder of the letter, and allow the silicone to cure for at least 10 minutes before removing the masking tape. However, we recommend overnight curing for most conditions and silicones. |
