General Modifications
Cut outs for electrical outlets/boxes:
1. Mark the intended location of each panel on the wall.
2. Carefully measure the exact location and size of the cut–out in the panel. An uninstalled identical unit may be used as a template for the cut–out.
3. Remove ONLY the fiberglass using a sharp knife making sure not to cut through the fabric on the other side.
4. Cut an X in the fabric directly over the cut–out.
5. Reapply the fabric to the fiberglass using a very light application of Auralex’s Foamtak spray adhesive.
6. Cover opening with desired face plate.
Edge Cutting:
1. Lay the panel down with the fabric face up. Pull the fabric off the panel at least two inches past the intended cut line. Mark the fiberglass core at the cut line (make sure to deduct for fabric thickness).
2. Using a straight edge, cut through the fiberglass core on the cut line with a sharp utility knife or table saw.
3. Cut the extra fabric so there is a two inch overhang on the back of the panel.
4. Spray Auralex Foamtak on the exposed face and edge of the panel. Apply the adhesive in a thin even coat across desired area. Let the adhesive set for at least 15 seconds before pulling fabric back over. Permanent discoloring of the fabric will occur if too much adhesive is used or not enough drying time is given.
5. Pull the fabric back over the panel, carefully checking by hand to make sure it is straight and without air pockets or creases.
6. Turn the panel face down on a clean surface and apply Foamtak spray adhesive in a 2” band where the fabric overhangs.
7. Trim the back and corners of excess fabric, but leave just enough to cover all fiberglass.
NOTE: Auralex is not responsible for damage done to any panel during general modifications.
