Instructions



 1 Cut the CDX Plywood sheets to fit the area to be covered, taking care to stagger the seams so the luan edges do not end at the same line as the edges of the subfloor that covers the floor joists.

A space of one quarter inch should be left between the luan sheets to allow for expansion.

2 Screw the CDX Plywood into place, using deck screws placed every six inches on the surface of the CDX Plywood and taking care to drive the screws slightly below the surface of the luan.

4 Sand the patched areas until smooth.
