Warning: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has exposure limits for people exposed to respirable crystalline silica;

these limits must be followed. All local, state and federal regulations must also be followed; this includes but is not limited to the removal of

in-place asbestos and/or lead-containing material. Do not use solvent/citrus based adhesive removers. When appropriate, follow the Resilient

Data Sheet (SDS) must be read, understood, and followed. Always wear safety glasses and use respiratory protection or other safeguards to

avoid inhaling any dust.

with any organic material trapped beneath the ﬂooring may facilitate mold growth. Any resulting, property damage and/or any resulting health

issues as a direct result of mold is not covered by the limited warranty of this ﬂooring or adhesive.

>6" Layout: The layout is recommended to be balanced with equal sizes on the top/bottom and left/right. Measure the area, calculate and mark your center/starting line (length direction) using a pencil and level. If the last rows are going to be less than half the width of a plank, then move your line over by half the width of the plank. A random pattern is recommended with ≥ 6-inches end-seam separation from the previous row.

>6" Cutting: To cut DuraDecor, measure, mark and carefully use a sharp utility knife and a framer’s or speed square to score the product from the top side, snap it down and finish the cut from the backside to trim the release film at the same time alternatively, cut using a guillotine style tile cutter. For complicated cuts. Installation: Mix planks from several boxes to ensure a random appearance. During the installation, inspect for visible defects, including damage, gloss, color, or shade variations.
