Installation

1. Select Schluter-DILEX-BWB according to tile thickness.
2. Using a notched trowel, apply thin-set mortar over the area where profile is to be placed.  The profile must align directly with movement joints in the substrate below
3. Press the perforated anchoring legs of the profile into the mortar and align.
4. Trowel additional thin-set mortar over the perforated anchoring legs to ensure full coverage and support of the tile edges.
5. Solidly embed the tiles so that the tiled surface is flush with the top of the profile; the profile should not be higher than the tiled surface, but rather up to approx. 1/32" (1 mm) lower.
6. A joint of approximately 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 mm - 3 mm) should be left between the tile and the profile.
7. Fill the joint completely with grout or setting material.
