Glue Down Installation Guidelines
Select adhesive based on Adhesive Selection guidelines provided above.
Concrete: If an excess subfloor moisture situation exists, it is required that M1000 Ultratack Advanced 3 in 1 Adhesive be applied using the provided clip-on
trowel. Use of these or products with equal or greater specifications is necessary for warranty compliance.
Engineered Flooring — Moisture/Sound Suppression Method Application
(Trowel clip on top of bucket)
M1000 Ultratack Advanced 3 in 1 Adhesive
A low VOC silane terminated polymer adhesive designed for use over on- or above-grade concrete substrates where excessive moisture may be present.
For concrete substrates with RH readings up to 95%, use the Clip-On Trowel Blade provided and attached to the top of each pail. Clip-on trowel blade must be
replaced with each pail of adhesive used or more frequently as wear dictates. Floor pH must not exceed 11. Approximate coverage is 35 square feet per gallon.
For concrete substrates with RH readings less than 80%, use a 3/16" x 1⁄4" x 1⁄2" flat V-notch trowel. Trowel should be replaced every 3,000 square feet or
sooner if excessively worn. Floor pH must not exceed 11. Approximate coverage is 55 square feet per gallon.
Coverage is based on application to a clean, smooth concrete substrate; therefore, application rate may vary depending on substrate conditions.
Uses
Protection from concrete moisture up to 95% RH
Sound reduction in multi-story buildings
Crack suppression for in plane cracks up to 1/8" wide
IMPORTANT: Only the above specified trowels and application methods are to be used with this adhesive; otherwise the product performance warranties
and liabilities will be made void. Use of these products or products with equal or greater specifications are necessary for warranty compliance.
M808 Tri-Polymer Adhesive
A high tri-polymer formula adhesive for the installation of engineered wood flooring over a variety of properly prepared substrates, including concrete, APA
approved subfloor panels, sheet vinyl, VCT and clean abraded terrazzo.
Wood substrates should test less than 12% using a pin moisture meter.
Use a 3/16" x 1⁄4" x 1⁄2" flat V-notch trowel. Trowel should be replaced every 3,000 square feet or sooner as wear dictates. Approximate coverage is 200 to
220 square feet per 4 gallons.
