Inside corners are easy to install when dropped down from the top. Use a coarse sandpaper to rough up any vinyl to vinyl surfaces. Apply SquidGee SealOnce™ on both main sections and the bottom of the corner piece. |
14. Seal Edges of the Corners
Sealing the edges of the Corners and caulking the bottom will insure there are no leaks. |

Caulk the floor joint with enough pressure to force some SquidGee SealOnce™ under the system. VERY IMPORTANT STEP to creating a watertight seal! |
