MORTAR & PRESS
Apply modified thinset mortar over the substrate surface using a V-notched trowel. Press the membrane into the mortar.

SEAMS
Using the TruSeal Sealant or thinset mortar, create a 2" overlap between sections using excess membrane or a membrane band.

CORNERS
For inside and outside corners, apply the Trugard Seals Kit to cover any corners using the thinset mortar or TruSeal Sealant.

PIPE & VALVE SEALS
Make sure to seal any piping or valves with a membrane pipe seal or shower valve seal, included in the Trugard Seals Kit.
