5. INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
Prepare flooring according to manufacturer’s instructions. Apply a bead
approximately 1/8” along the entire edge of the sheet vinyl. Apply only to one
side at a time to be seamed. Push in the edges of the sheet vinyl together while
the adhesive still has tack. Wipe any excess product with a warm wet cloth.
Roll the seam with a hand roller. Any dried sealer may be removed with mineral
spirits. Can be walked on in 2 hours, for best results protect the work area for 6
hours, to allow the seam to fully cure.
Curing
Up to 6 hours. High temperature and low humidity will cause the adhesive to
cure faster.
Clean-up
Fresh adhesive – Use warm soapy water while wet.
Dried adhesive – use mineral spirits sparingly with a clean, white cotton cloth.
DO NOT POUR DIRECTLY ONTO FLOORING.
