Residential Installation Guide –

Sheet Vinyl Flooring

• For bathroom installations, it is not necessary to remove the toilet. Make relief cuts around the perimeter of the

toilet and make sure the vinyl ooring is laying at before trimming off the excess material. Apply caulk around

the toilet, next to the bathtubs and showers to prevent moisture from getting under the vinyl. NOTE: if there is a

ceramic sanitary cove and no place to install trim mold, you can apply caulk around the walls.

• Make sure furniture legs have large surface, non-staining plastic oor protectors or non-staining felt pads. The

protectors should be at least one inch in diameter and rest at on the oor. The heavier the item, the wider the

oor protector should be. Replace small, narrow metal or dome-shaped glides with smooth, at glides that are

in at contact with the oor.

• Never tape around the perimeter of the room.

• Never apply Mohawk ooring to a wet adhesive (if adhesive is needed for certain areas of the Loose-Lay). This

could cause permanent bond or wrinkling and possibly void the warranty.
