APPLICATION
Our flexible trim strips feature a pressure sensitive adhesive. When applied with firm, constant pressure, InstaTrim flexible trim will last for years without requiring replacement. For the best adhesion and professional look, we recommend the InstaTrim Applicator Tool and the InstaTrim Corner & End Caps
ADHESIVE
Rubber-based butyl, pressure sensitive adhesive, contains no toxic chemicals or fumes. Conforms to ASTM D4236 (Info Tox International, Inc.)
PATENTED DESIGN
InstaTrim’s flexible wings create an additional level of protection against dust, dirt, moisture and air movement. Our flexible wings apply pressure to the application surface creating a second barrier of protection.
CEILING APPLICATIONS
We recommend using 1/2 inch wide strips.
SILICONE REMOVAL
If you are applying InstaTrim to an area that has old silicone caulk, you will need to complete the Silicone Removal Process.
Using a sharp blade, cut away and remove all existing silicone caulk.
Use a scrubby sponge or stiff bristle brush to help remove stubborn silicone residue with acetone or isopropyl alcohol.
Thoroughly wipe surface with acetone* to remove any remaining residue or oils left on the surface. Let surface dry completely.
*Only use Acetone in well-ventilated areas and avoid any exposure to ignition sources such as a pilot light, candle or cigarette.
INSTALLATION
Position the end of the strip at your starting point and lay the strip where it will be installed to determine where to cut the finish end. Be sure to add ¼ inch to the end to ensure a tight fit. Mark the strip and cut with a razor blade or scissors.
On the adhesive side of the trim, peel back the liner to expose the adhesive. Hold the end of the strip with the adhesive side facing the application corner. Push the first end of the strip onto the corner and apply the first 2-3 feet by pressing it down every 4-6 inches with your fingers. Repeat with the next 2-3 feet until you reach the end. If the strip is a little crooked, peel the strip back and reset it before the next step.
Next, firmly press the strip into the corner along the entire length, making sure you are applying enough pressure to allow the adhesive to bond with your application surface. We recommend using the InstaTrim Applicator Tool which helps to provide even constant pressure for the adhesive and also makes it easier on your fingers.
No drying time is needed. If you wish you may paint immediately after installing.
NOTE: Do not stretch the InstaTrim strip as you install it, this may cause the end to pull back once the trim has been set into place.
SURFACE PREPARATION –
To ensure an effective installation for InstaTrim’s adhesive to properly bond with the surface it is very important that the consumer follow all instructions for cleaning the application surface.
SILICONE –
InstaTrim will not adhere to old silicone! All silicone caulk, residue and oils MUST be 100% removed prior to installing InstaTrim strips. See “Silicone Removal Process” for details on how to properly remove all silicone. NOTE: some tile, granite and quartz products come with a silicone sealer to prevent moisture and stains from absorbing into the surface.
WAX AND OILS -
Surface must be free from wax and oils. Do not use surface cleaners that contain waxes and oils, such as furniture polish, mineral spirits and surface restore products.
Application surface must be clean, dry and free of dust and dirt.
HOW TO APPLY
1 Clean surface and let dry.
2 Peel back the liner.
3 Press firmly into the gap.
4 Trim the finished edge, and voila!
USE INSTATRIM ANYWHERE
InstaTrim works with all surfaces that do not have silicone or silicone residue on them, like: Granite, Laminate, Wood, Glass, Metal, and more!

Needed this for my new bathroom vanity, since the gap was too big for caulk (which I am not always fond of). This trim and the end caps and corner piece worked out Very well
Kathy, very nice job! looks like a natural part of your sink.

Great product. My husband found it very easy to use. First, he did the kitchen counters/back splash, what an improvement! Then, the bathtub, which took a little extra work, he had to use a water proof adhesive to get it to stick to the tile, again, a huge improvement. Because we didn't want to cover the corners, he used clear silicone. His next project will be the toilet bases.
Thank you very much for your commenst and pictures. Looks like a great improvement!
Greg
Worked as described! Made my job so much easier. Looks great too!
When carpet was pulled up, a gap was left at the base of the trim. The Instatrim was the perfect solution.

Looks great put on top of my other trim
Product was easy to use and make look good!
Used on top of my kitchen cabinets. It worked perfectly and the back of trim fit into a space between cabinet and back splash. Would recommend!
Installing the trim worked well - the corner and end pieces were difficult to install and the color of the corner/end pieces did not match the trim color which was unfortunate.
I've only tested the narrower width so far but it's worked nicely in the crack between my bathroom tile and hallway flooring. I can see it would only work in specific situations but it does save a lot of time. I didn't purchase the application tool and only used my fingers but it adhered nicely.
Not wide enough for what I needed it to do, they should make it in different sizes, and the glue strip is just in the center, if you are filling a gap it does no good even with the tool you can't make it stick and stay.
Ordered a wider strip from another company and had nothing but adhesion issues. This product is the perfect width for toilet surround and easy to cut and apply. Looks great! Always clean surfaces with alcohol wipe.

Thank you for your comments! Always great to hear that our InstaTrim out performed a competitor. Greg
Our floor in the bathroom didn't have a seal where it met with the shower enclosure. Our tub is right next to the shower and when we give our two little boys a bath, it's impossible to keep the water in the tub. Instatrim was a great solution to seal that seam with a perfectly uniform strip that requires basically no skill to install. It worked perfectly for our situation.
Looks far better then the caulk that I used to use, especially with the house contracting and expanding with seasonal temperature and humidity changes. It remains to be seen how it does over a year time period. So far so good. It certainly looks better than the normal caulk.
Marc;
Glad to hear that InstaTrim helped you with your project. Greg
This is a great alternative to having to cut and secure wood trim. Plus it bends around curves, dips etc. seamlessly. My only suggestion is to make it a bit larger which would make it easier to handle and would cover more flaws.
Michael;
Thank you for the feedback. We are coming out with a 1' wide product later this summer. Greg
It is a very practical and high-quality product. Very easy to install and looks very well installed.
Maria, Thank you for your comments which we really appreciate. As a family owned business we take a lot of pride in our InstaTrim Products and work to always offer the best product available in the marketplace.

Big fan of InstaTrim products! Just installed a new toilet and silicone caulking was not an option after leveling. The look is phenomenal and much better than my caulking could ever be. Zero issues with new adhesive & product uniformity with the InstaTrim tool is perfect.
Rob, thank you for the comments on your project. If you get a chance could you post a couple of pictures?

Works well. Easy to install. Holds up in wet conditions. Nice to have a good alternative to silicone for a flexible inside corner seal.
The 1/2 White Flexible Trim worked perfectly for the projects around sinks areas. Looks great!!!
It will not work for my project. I would like to return it.
I tried it in 2 different areas in my kitchen and it didn’t stay stuck. The idea is nice but it just doesn’t work.
