STORE FLAT IN A DARK / DRY / COOL AREA
The acrylic paper backing on the decking, which protects the Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA), can be affected by humidity over time. Storing in a dry, cool area, can preserved the PSA for later installation.
Storing in a dark area (ie. no sunlight) will protect colours from potential fading and help to ensure all colours will match upon later installation.
Ultralon® decking is durable, but for longevity after installation, it is recommended that the boat (or any other surface of application) be covered. (Examples include keeping the boat: in a garage, covered with a canvas boat cover, in a covered boat slip, dock or shed, etc). Reducing longer term exposure to the elements, when not in use, will help extend the life of your decking and reduce colour fade.
