Installation Guide – Dolomite Polished Marble Crown Molding
Step 1 — Surface Preparation: Clean & Level Base
Ensure the wall is dry, clean, and level along the top edge where the molding will be installed.
Complete all tile installations below the crown molding before placing the trim.
Mark a straight horizontal guideline at the desired height for precise alignment.
Step 2 — Dry Layout: Positioning & Visual Flow
Lay out all molding pieces without adhesive to check alignment, polish consistency, and natural veining.
Cut and miter corners using a wet saw with a fine diamond blade for clean transitions.
Confirm color, tone, and surface finish are consistent across all pieces.
Step 3 — Adhesive Application: Secure Placement
Recommended Adhesives:
Instructions:
Apply a thin layer of thin-set mortar to the back of each molding piece using a margin or V-notch trowel.
Back-butter each piece to ensure full contact and gently press along the guideline.
Support the molding with painter’s tape or temporary bracing to prevent slipping while the adhesive cures (minimum 24 hours).
Step 4 — Grouting: Clean, Detailed Finish
After adhesive curing, use non-sanded grout for joints between pieces.
Apply grout carefully with a rubber float or grout bag and remove excess with a damp sponge.
Buff with a soft cloth 30–45 minutes after application to remove any haze.
Step 5 — Sealing: Protection & Longevity
Once grout has fully cured (about 72 hours), apply a penetrating marble-safe sealer to protect the surface.
Reapply periodically depending on humidity, cleaning frequency, or exposure to water.
Maintenance Tips
Use pH-neutral, non-abrasive cleaners suitable for marble surfaces.
Avoid acidic or harsh cleaning agents that may etch or dull the polished finish.
Dust or gently wipe regularly with a soft cloth to maintain shine.
⚠️ Important Note:
Dolomite is a natural marble; variations in tone, veining, and texture are normal. Always dry-lay and inspect all pieces before installation. Stonemarket USA is not responsible for installation errors or natural stone variations.
