FAQs
-
How does the ceiling kit mount?
All Ram Promaster kits are designed to fit using furring strips. The furring strip is mounted to overhead beams using rivet nuts on factory holes, and the ceiling panels are fastened to the furring strip using wood screws. The outer rows are cut to match the odd curvature of the overhead trusses in your Promaster.

- How do I apply stain, finish, or sealer?
Painting:
- Lightly scuff the entire surface of the product that you plan on coating with 120-180 grit sandpaper.
- Apply 2-3 coats of primer before applying your main coat.
- Always apply a finish when you're happy with the paint for a long-lasting appearance.
Staining:
- Sand the surface on all faces with sandpaper traveling with the grain of the wood.
- Apply stain very cautiously to a section of the product that will not be visible to gauge the volume and pressure you need to achieve the desired look.
- Apply the stain evenly with a rag, sponge, or spray gun until all surfaces are coated.
- Please note that overlapping surfaces may make the stain darker on the overlapped areas.
- Always apply a finish when you're happy with the stain for a long-lasting appearance.
Other Notes
- Fan Cutouts, A/C Cutouts, and other cuts are not standard. Please see custom options for more information.
- Have a Promaster 136 or 159 EXT? No need to worry - we have this kit for those models available upon request.
- We can not guarantee consistency in grain or pattern in natural wood colors as they are made from real wood veneer, and sometimes nature is inconsistent.
- 1/2" Plywood panels are plywood with veneer laminate, and because of this, the grain will be visible on the sides between gaps. Panels are not edge banded as more temperate climates may cause the adhesive to melt and the banding to peel. For this reason, raw wood is visible on the sides of the panels.
- Dual Row of lights are included and AC-to-12VDC adapter.
- This kit ships in packaged boxes for single-item orders or on a pallet for larger combined orders.
- We are not responsible for damages caused by modification of our panels for your custom additions.
- If a panel is damaged, we won't make you purchase a new kit. Let us know which panel, and we can ship a replacement!
