Substrates
Substrates
Will bond to all substrates listed below, but refer to the flooring installation system for specific installation recommendations:
 Concrete on all grade levels
 Suspended wood and wood underlayment
 Existing well-bonded resilient flooring; not perimeter-bonded or cushion-backed
 Ceramic tile, terrazzo, marble, and polymeric-poured floors
 Properly mixed and applied powder underlayments and embossing levelers
 Primed,poured-in-placed gypsum subfloors
 Clean and abraded steel, stainless steel, and aluminum
 Radiant-heated subfloors where the surface temperature does not exceed 85 degrees F (29 degrees C)
DO NOT USE OVER:
 Concrete with excessive moisture and/or alkali
 Existing cushion-backed resilient flooring
 Substrates treated with fire-retardant chemicals, fungicides, preservatives, release agents, adhesive removers,
sealers, curing compounds or other incompatible treatments

Installation Procedures
For use with the following Installation Systems:
Fiberglass-Reinforced Sheet Flooring Installation System
ToughGuard II Installation System
Alterna Installation System
Residential LVT Planks Installation System
Commercial Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring Installation System
INSTALLATION TIPS:
 Condition the area to be installed, adhesive, and flooring to minimum 65 degrees F (18 degrees
C) for 48 hours before, during, and for 48 hours after installation.
 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. Calcium Chloride test results should not exceed 5 pounds/1000 sq ft/24
hours, relative humidity in-situ probe results should not exceed 85% for sheet products and
90% for LVT. Alkali readings should be 5 to 9.
 Stir any liquid on the surface into the adhesive and full spread using the recommended trowel
notching.
 When installing over nonporous surfaces such as existing resilient flooring and embossing
levelers, allow enough open time for the adhesive to dry until tacky with no transfer to the
finger (Dry-to Touch) before placing the material into it. This normally takes 30 minutes or
more, depending on temperature and humidity. After the adhesive has reached this condition,
there is at least one hour of working time in which to install and roll the flooring.
 When installing over porous surfaces such as concrete and wood, allow the adhesive enough
time to thicken slightly but not become completely dry to the touch. Use the Set-in-Wet
procedure for placing the material into the adhesive. The adhesive should be wet enough to
transfer readily to the backing. Seams must be laid into place before the adhesive has had a
