Types of Floorings

• Solid wood plank/strip
• Parquet – wood block and mosaic
• Engineered wood
• Bamboo
• Acrylic impregnated wood
• Plywood
• Others

Preparations

• The subfloor must be solid and structurally sound, flat, smooth, clean, and dry.
• Ensure the surface to which the adhesive is to be applied is free of dust, dirt, grease, wax, peeled paint, oil, sealants of ANY type, curing agents, bond breakers, asphalt residues, liquid adhesive removers, strippers, chemicals, or any other foreign substances that may potentially affect adhesion.
• The subfloor must be flat to 3 mm under a 3-meter straight edge. There can increase the risk of cavities under the wooden flooring.
• Any existing coating or adhesives must be completely removed. Mechanical treatment is acceptable to achieve acceptable subfloor conditions for installation. Methods are shot blasting, grinding, or sanding.

Recommendations

• Verify that the moisture content of the slab is below 4% by impedance meter (e.g. Tramex). Floor manufacturers may also have other requirements for assessing panel moisture. Including assessing internal panel moisture per ASTM F2170.
• The possible moisture migration from sub-floors can affect wood swelling or cupping. The ground floor is often uncertain about the current or future moisture content of the slab. Should have Alseal AS-2507 Epoxy Moisture Barrier applied to the slab.
• Installing a wooden floor on a heated sub-floor can be after 24 hours switch off of heating. It prevents premature curing of the adhesive.
• The best environmental conditions for the installation process. The air temperature: 10°C – 35°C, relative humidity: 40% – 75%. Subject to the requirements specified by the wood flooring manufacturer.
• Do not install if the walls and ceilings of the area are not dry. The high moisture of environmental. Mostly it after plastering, painting, etc.

Usage instructions Flooring Adhesive MS Polymer AS-4030

Packs in Pail:
1. Remove the lid and cut open the foil liner. The floorboards have to place into the adhesive within 30 mins and this is often 3 to 4 rows of board rows at one time.
2. Spread the adhesive with the proper notched trowel, apply on the subfloor. Avoid adhesive pools and excessive adhesive thickness by passing the trowel through the adhesive at a 45-degree angle.
3. Place the wood in the adhesive within working time. Position it and press down or tamp down with a rubber hammer to ensure good contact. Wood may move at first. To be sure to secure the initial row to limit movement and hold patterns.
4. At least 80% of adhesive contact assures proper bonding of the flooring.
5. Please, restrict foot traffic for 12-16 hours. Recommended 24 hours break before sanding and coating applying.

Sausage sachet:
1. Place the sausage sachet in a suitable application gun and snip off the end. Cut the tip off the nozzle to suit the application.
2. Apply the adhesive with appropriate force and speed.
3. Make sure that the wood is set on the substrate within the working time of the adhesive.
Note: In relying on mechanical fixing and use of beads of adhesive in applications to plywood, OSB, particleboard, joists, or battens, follow wood flooring manufacturer’s guidelines for layout, design, and any special recommendations for installation.
