Installation & Assembly

Doors
Interior doors often have space at the bottom to accommodate new flooring. If yours do, then you’re good
to go. If yours don’t, or they’re cut for something lower than the floor you’re installing, you may need to
trim the bottom of the door molding. Lay a tile up next to the door frame, mark it with a pencil, then trim
door just above the pencil mark.
Clean Up
To clean the floor after installation, use a solution of ½ cup white vinegar in a gallon of water and damp
mop. If you would like to add protection, you can use a commercial vinyl tile sealer. This is recommended
in a commercial building. If it is a residential install, we recommend two coats of Armstrong Shine Keeper
or Rejuvenate. Both are applied with a mop and dry quickly. We recommend an application every year, it
will not build up, but will make the floor look great and easier to keep clean.
After the Install: Full Spread
 Try to stay off new vinyl floor for 24 hours. If you must walk on the floor, avoid the seams.
 To allow the adhesives to setup properly, keep the room at 68° F or greater for at least 2 days.
 Ventilate the area well for 48 to 72 hours.
 Light foot traffic is allowed after 24 hours.
 Don’t wet mop your floor for about five days. The adhesives need time to cure.
 Most of all follow the instructions on the adhesive label.
After the Install: Floating Method:
 Foot traffic is fine immediately following installation.
Furniture and Appliance Placement
 Don’t rely on furniture or appliance wheels and do not drag appliances over your new floor!
 Lay down a piece of thin plywood and move the appliance over the floor on the wood, or use furniture
sliders made specifically for this purpose.
Notes
 Although our products are colorfast, avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Exposure
may result in discoloration. During peak sunlight hours, the use of the drapes or blinds is
recommended
 Perfection Floor Tile is water/moisture resistant, however, excessive moisture in the subfloor could
promote mold, mildew, and other moisture related issues like the trapping of moisture emissions
under the flooring, which may contribute to an unhealthy indoor environment.
 Perfection Floor Tile does not warrant nor is responsible for damage to floor covering due to moisture
related issues.
 We also recommend keeping some leftover pieces of vinyl for future repairs “just in case.”
