Preparation
Ensure substrate, carpet and adhesive are fully acclimated prior to installation
at the same temperature and humidity level expected during normal use
(65–95°F) with <65% relative humidity.
Installation
Prepare/cut carpet edges according to manufacturer’s recommendations.
Apply a 1/8" bead of adhesive to one side of the carpet along the backing and
where the face yarns enter the backing (not the cushion). Smooth out any
excess adhesive. Join the carpet seams while the sealer is still wet.
Bubble Repair
Inject or open and spread this product under isolated bubbles of flooring. Roll
flooring to receive transfer and sandbag overnight.
Curing
Up to 12–24 hours. High temperature and low humidity will cause the adhesive
to cure faster.
Clean-up
Within 10 minutes after seaming carpet use mineral spirits sparingly with a
clean, white cotton cloth.
DO NOT POUR CLEANER DIRECTLY ONTO FLOORING.
