How to mount Ezobord PET felt Full Sheets with EzoTape and construction adhesive: tape spacing for 9 mm and 12 mm sheets, leveling, and burnishing.
Ezobord Full Panels are sheets of PET acoustic felt that mount flat to a wall with EzoTape, a double-sided tape made for the material. Construction adhesive added behind the tape gives a permanent bond. This guide follows Ezobord's Full Sheet installation instructions.
Tools and materials
- EzoTape
- Construction-grade adhesive (recommended in addition to the tape)
- Level or laser, roller, and a sharp knife
Steps
- Tape the edges. On the back of the sheet, apply EzoTape around the outer edges, about 1/8 in. in from the edge.
- Add vertical rows. Run more EzoTape vertically across the back: every 16 in. for 9 mm (3/8 in.) sheets and every 12 in. for 12 mm (1/2 in.) sheets.
- Burnish the tape. Roll over the tape to bond it to the felt. Add beads of construction adhesive between the tape rows for a permanent installation.
- Mark the wall. Find the sheet's position, level it, and mark it in pencil.
- Stick the sheet. Peel the paper backing off the tape and press the sheet onto the wall at your marks.
- Burnish the face. Roll over the whole sheet with firm pressure so it bonds to the wall.
Cutting and finishing
Cut the felt with a sharp knife against a straight edge. Sheets come in 1/4 in. (48 × 108 in.), 3/8 in. (48 × 96 in.), and 1/2 in. (48 × 108 in.) thicknesses and are tackable, so the finished wall can double as a pin-up surface.
Performance
Mounted flat, Full Panels test at NRC 0.31 (3/8 in.) and 0.40 (1/2 in.). They are ASTM E84 Class A and at least 60% recycled PET.
