*Use a High Voltage Impact Drill*
1. Using an Impact driver with the setting tool, drive the fastener to the preset level below the trim surface. The fastener must be driven perpendicular to the surface.
2. Place the plug into the hole with the trim surface side up and gently tap until it is flush with the trim. The cored hole must be free of debris or moisture.
Nail holes, screw holes and minor dents and dings may be repaired with a high-grade exterior caulk or exterior wood filler. Use a high-grade exterior acrylic paint and follow the paint manufacturer’s application instructions.
