Application

PREPARATION

Preparation should be in accordance with building standards to lay parquet or laminate floor, ie subfloor must be sound, even, smooth, permanently dry and free from old adhesive residues, dust, grease or other contaminants.

 
APPLICATION
 
Allow a gap for expansion joint along the perimeter of the floor.
A gap of 5 to 8 mm should be done between the wood flooring and walls. Gap dimensions: 0.15% of the largest dimensions of the area to be covered with flooring. These expansion joints will be later covered by skirting boards.
Clean tongues and grooves from dust. Before assembly apply the sealant generously to the tongue edges along their width and length. Assembly the boards immediately so that the excess of the sealant appears on the top of the board.
Allow the sealant to dry for 15-30 minutes. Remove the surplus of the sealant using a plastic spatula. Carry out necessary test to make sure the spatula will not leave traces on the top of the board.
 
Reducing sound transmission
Apply SUBO EC 20 Fixer with a roller (consumption: 100 g/m²) onto the required underlayment. Allow an appropriate waiting time (approx. 46 to 60 minutes). The upper side of the underlay becomes tacky and creates a solid bond between underlayment and laminate boards. The laminate boards can be later disassembled.    

REMARKS
Always follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
