Installation

1. Select Schluter-DILEX-BWA according to tile thickness.
2. Using a notched trowel, apply thin-set mortar over the area where the profile is to be placed.
3. If necessary, fill the dovetailed channel with Schluter-KERDI-FIX, epoxy resin, silicone, or similar to adhere the profile to the existing structure.
4. Press the perforated anchoring leg of Schluter-DILEX-BWA into the mortar and adjust it securely against the existing building elements.
5. Trowel additional thin-set mortar over the perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage and support of the tile edges.
6. Solidly embed the tiles and align flush with the top of the profile.
7. A joint of approx. 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5 mm - 3 mm) should be left between the tile and the profile.
8. Fill the joint completely with grout or setting material.
