HERE ARE SOME GOOD INSTALL GUIDES
I do not cut corners when installing the FRP. I use a good coverage of adhesive and press it on firmly and use plywood pads with bracing to hold the FRP to wall until dry. I like a solid feel when pressing the FRP wall and not puffy voids.
I have had good success with mine. I used a plywood backing. What you have on your walls will work fine.
I have had good success with my installs. I use A/C plywood backing. What you have on your walls will work fine. I use a very small bead of clear tub chalking in the corner channels of the trim pieces before slipping them over the edges of the FRP. Makes for a perfect corner seal. I use painter's tape along both sides of all seams when calking wall to tub basin, etc. Remove tape carefully before chalk dries and smooth chalk with wet finger. I dislike a messy chalking job.
I have done jobs where I ran the FRP horizonal on the bottom half of wall and finish the top half with another material to compliment it. Different strokes for different folks.
Thanks for the info. Plenty to read.
