2. Embed the profile's perforated wings in the adhesive, checking that it is level.
3. Lay the tiles flush against the profile for a seamless finish.
4. Once the adhesive and grout are dry, stick the LED strip to the bottom of the profile.
5. Clip the opal diffuser into place.

The profile can also be recessed into a ceiling: cut a suitably sized groove, secure it using the supplied accessories, then insert the strip and clip the diffuser into place.
