Beaux-Arts Spanish Empire Ornament Installation Instructions

The panels can be installed with a single top, or for higher wainscoting use, with one at the bottom also.

Install MDF 8″ x 3/4″ baseboard and MDF chair rail base 6″ x 3/4″ along the entire wall.	Calculate width of spacer boards needed to make panels fit nicely.	Attach first spacer with adhesive caulk then attach Spanish Empire panel top.	Then attach next spacer board, and next Spanish Empire panel top.

After the panel tops and spacer boards are up, nail chair rail and base molding.	Then mitre and attach inner cove molding with adhesive caulk.	Caulk and fill all gaps, seams and joints. Spend time to do the job right.	Add faux finish or a stencil in the middle for a special look.
