INSTALLATION TIPS: Refer to flooring installation system.
• Seams in sheet vinyl must be heat welded only. Seams may be welded immediately.
• Condition area to be installed, adhesive, and tile at 65° F (18° C) or above for 48 hours before and 48
hours after installation.
• Sweep or vacuum floor, and use a damp mop to pick up remaining dust.
• Subfloor must be smooth, sound, dry, clean, and free of dirt, wax, polish, paint, and all other foreign
matter which may interfere in a good bond, including curing agents and sealers.
• Always run a moisture and alkali test over concrete on any grade level or any other substrate over
on- or below-grade concrete. For accurate results, curing agents must be removed in areas where
tests will be run. Relative humidity in-situ probe results should not exceed 93%. Alkali readings
should be 5 to 11.
• Shake bottle well. Point the bottle downward and press the side of the nozzle tip.
• Walk back and forth at a steady pace. Do not use a sweeping motion.
• Use a shield to protect walls from overspray. A shield can be as simple as a piece of cardboard.
• Spray the perimeter first, then fill in the rest of the room.
• Allow adhesive to set open until dry to the touch, approximately 30 minutes. When dry to the touch,
the adhesive will be tacky with no transfer to fingers.
• Wet adhesive, overspray or drips should be cleaned and smoothed immediately using a cloth
moistened with soap and water. Drips can be smoothed out with spatula or flat trowel.
• Between uses, clean the spray tip with a clean wet cloth to prevent accumulation of dried adhesive.
• Install and fit all material within 4 hours. Working time will vary based on job conditions, substrate,
temperature and humidity.
• Roll the floor once immediately after installation with 100-lb roller
• Remove wet adhesive residue using a clean, white cloth dampened with soapy water. Use mineral
spirits for dried adhesive residue carefully following warnings on container.
Do not wet wash or scrub flooring for at least five days after installation.
