Today I’ll be doing the silicone method of installing a popup drain for cultured marble, because sometimes, the putty might stain the cultured marble especially white cultured marble, and we don’t want that. Today, I’ll be using silicone instead.

First we’ve got our cap, the top portion of the popup. Around this, we’re going to put our silicone all the way around, just build it up nice and thick to make sure everything gets coated, like so. I’ve got the silicone on all the way around; we’re going to insert that into our drain. Then on the bottom, we’re going to feed our popup assembly. With the popup assembly, we’re going to want to coat the inner portions of the parts with the silicone also, this way it’s got it all in the threads. As we tighten this up together, everything gets siliconed up real good. In between both sides of the fittings, applying the silicone, as well as to the top threads, all the way around the inside. Then back to our cap that goes up top; we already put silicone around the outside. We’re going to put silicone around the inside also, that way when those threads get threaded in, they tighten up against that.

Insert that portion in the top and put our popup assembly up through the hole. Up top, we’re going to rotate this all the way on until it’s seated nice and strong. That’s about as far as I can go with that. [inaudible: 02:14] I’m not going to squeeze; I’m just going to hold it to make sure, and I’m rotating the bottom portion until that’s nice and set. Going back down below, what we need to do is make sure that the popup rod is facing towards the back. Now we can go ahead and tighten the net up, pulling down and turning it into place. Before I do that, I’m going to go ahead and put another bead of silicone around the inside of the top, pretty much all the way around, like so. We’re ready to tighten this up. It’s going to squeeze the silicone out of everywhere. Again, this is why you want several layers of gloves. In fact, I’m going to put on more because this way as it gets onto your gloves, you can just undo a layer if you need to. It makes clean- up a lot easier. Also when we go to remove the excess silicone, it makes that easier too.

We’re ready to tighten this up; again, making sure the popup is towards the back. Eventually, we’ll reach a point where we’re tight. I’m going to go ahead and remove a layer of gloves so I don’t get the silicone all over my channel locks. I can use my channel locks to tighten this down the rest of the way. This should be done until its 1/4 -turn past tight. If you have two pairs of channel locks, you can use one pair to hold the bottom. There is another way: You could take your screwdriver and insert that in here, and then use that to hold. Just be careful because this particular one’s made out of plastic so we don’t want to crack it. We’re nice and tight.

On the bottom, you’ll want to take your gloves and go all the way around, and just smooth this silicone in so that you’ve got a nice, even spread all the way around. On top, just take all the excess silicone out of here. We might have squeezed out through the top. At the bottom, going to put another little bead of silicone just around the bottom thread and then smooth that in with a glove so that it’s nice and even all the way around.
