Glue Down Installation
Finishing Touches
Clean the floor.
Install or reinstall all wall trim pieces. Nail them through the wall, but not to the subfloor to avoid restricng the expansion gap.
Step 4 – Install the Remaining Rows
a) Spread another secon of glue. Never spread more that
can be covered before the adhesive is set. If adhesive is set
and will not transfer to the back of the plank, scrape off
the adhesive and apply fresh adhesive.
b) Connue to install the next rows.
c) Make sure there is a random staggering at the end
joints of at least 6” apart. Be aenve to staggering the
ends of the boards correctly in adjacent rows to avoid
clustering end joints.
d) Ensure that a 3/4” expansion gap is maintained around the
pe
rimeter of the room.
e) Make sure that there is 100% adhesive contact between
the underside of the planks and subfloor. Any excess
glue which seeps onto the surface of the floor must be
removed immediately with adhesive remover. Do not
apply on T&G edge.
f) Tap the planks together unl the tongue and groove
are in place. Be careful NOT to damage the face of the
planks. Use a clean, smooth, 75-pound roller to roll the
flooring immediately aer installaon and aer every
150-square foot interval during the installaon to
insure proper adhesive transfer.
g) The Pull Bar helps you reduce seams in ght spaces, that
can't be reached with a tapping block while the glue dries.
h) The flooring should be taped together during installaon
using painters tape to keep the planks from moving during
installaon while the glue dries. The tape must be le in
place for a minimum of 24 hours.
i) Aer the installaon is completed, keep the floor free
from foot traffic for a mini
mum of 24 hours to allow
adhesive to properly set.
