We all went brain dead around here.
How close are the Corian numbers supposed to be when gluing Corian sheet together (50?)…Thanks.
February 24, 2009 at 12:00 pm #50066John ChristensenMemberI would normally be comfortable at 50, but that said, I have seen color mismatch from one ind of the sheet to the other. I also have had numbers be tens of thousands apart and still be ok.
The real question is do the sheets look right when you place them together and wet the surface.

February 25, 2009 at 11:01 am #50094WayneMemberWe sent them back…unfortunately more sheets must come from Florida (same as the first…you’d think they’d look at the numbers before shipping). DOESN’T ANYONE CARRY INVENTORY ANYMORE!!!!!
February 25, 2009 at 11:08 am #50095Linda GravesMemberWe recently received 2 sheets that did not match. When I called to request matching sheets, I was told that unless we specify matching sheets, they will ship whatever is in stock. In this case they did not have matching sheets.
I had always assumed that if I order 2 sheets on one order, they would be matching. A phone call would have saved time and money.February 25, 2009 at 11:46 am #50096WayneMemberWe requested them matching and the acknowledgement stated that as well.

I’ve got to agree with Johnny.
The homeowner doesn’t care what the numbers are, she just wants consistency. Corian is very consistent in color and particulate generally.

I recently had a job in Corian “Oat”. The sheet had a 5″ particulate starved strip running right down the center of the full length. Due to weather problems the material arrived four days late. I did not have time to re-order.
Solution: I cut 5″ out of the middle of the sheet and seamed it back together. Then I used the 5″ strip for backsplash where it was not really easy to notice…
Since I had no other choice in order to stay on schedule and keep the customer happy, I got a full credit from the distributor for the sheet.
