FAQ
Which type of glue should be used for pre-finished (varnished) parquet ?
Definitions
ImperviousCharacterisitc of a subfloor which porosity is very low. Adhesion on such substrates is usually more difficult and requires more attention and preparation.
PrimerLiquid or paste applied onto a substrate to obtain optimum bonding. It helps regulate the porosity of the substrate (reduce absorption, therefore adhesive usage), increase adhesion to non porous surfaces, improves application properties of later on applied adhesive
Tiling
Waiting timeTime between adhesive application and material bonding. It is required to wait to allow the adhesive to have enough adhesion power (tack) to receive the floor covering.
Working timeTime between end of waiting time and moment when the application is no longer possible

Uses

BOSTIK TARBICOL MS ELASTIC is a 1-Component MS polymer-based parquet adhesive suitable for securing all types of parquet floorings on absorbent and impervious substrates.

For bonding onto all types of substrates such as concrete screeds, cement/sand screeds, flooring grade plywood and particle board, metal decking, ceramic tiles, anhydrite screeds.

An adhesive with high suction grab for securing all types of wood onto all substrates:

all wood species (including horn-beech, beech, birch and bamboo)
unfinished or factory pre-finished parquet of any thickness and length,
mosaic parquet
on-edge floorboards
densified wood
end-grain wood

Ideal for exotic timber.

Benefits

Moisture-resistant (e.g. bonding teak in wet areas)
No waiting time required
Water-free, thus no damaging swelling effect on wood
User-friendly: solvent- and isocyanate-free
Environment-friendly: this product is classified EC1 by the GEV (Association for the Control of Emissions in Products for Flooring Installation) EC1 = Very Low Emission.
Suitable for underfloor heating and cooling systems
Permanently elastic at temperatures ranging from – 40° to +120°C
High suction grab
Adhesive residues on parquet flooring can be easily removed
Restores its initial elasticity after compression or elongation
Non-corrosive on metal decking
Reduces significantly impact sound

Safety:

IMPORTANT: before embarking on any work involving BOSTIK TARBICOL MS ELASTIC the separate Product Safety Data Sheet must be studied carefully by those carrying out the work.
Observe good hygiene in use. Avoid skin and eye contact.

Shelf life:

Up to 12 months in the original unopened container stored between +10°C and +30°C.

Application

PREPARATION

Preparation should be in accordance with building standards. Subfloors must be sound, even, smooth, permanently dry and free from old adhesive residues, dust, grease or other contaminants.

When overlaying existing floor coverings ensure that they are firmly bonded and clean.

Remove dirt, polish, oil and similar contaminating substances.

When further preparation of the subfloor is required, select suitable Bostik primers and Bostik smoothing and levelling compounds.

All surfaces must incorporate adequate damp proofing, if not, they should be primed with Eponal 376 Moisture Vapour Barrier coating.

Always allow primers and underlayment to dry thoroughly before applying the adhesive.

APPLICATION

Apply the adhesive evenly onto the substrate using a notched trowel Pajarito n069. No waiting time is necessary.

No primer is needed onto anhydrite screeds with BOSTIK TARBICOL MS ELASTIC.

Place the wood flooring immediately in position and press firmly (or roll) over the whole surface to ensure good transfer.

Distorted floorboards need to be weighted and retained in position until full cure.

Using wedges, allow a gap of 8 mm between the parquet and walls. Remove the wedges immediately after installation. Gap dimensions: 0.15% of the largest dimensions of the area to be covered with flooring.

REMARKS

- Store the parquet in a dry place.

- Do not install parquet flooring if the relative humidity is over 65%.

- Underfloor heating systems must comply with current regulations. Turn off the heating 48 hours prior to installation. Wait for at least 1 week after laying the floor covering before gradually turning up the heating.

- MSP adhesive is very sticky, before starting any work we recommend to use protective gloves.

- Tightly close all containers after use.

Cleaning

Tools and fresh spillages should be cleaned with a methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or acetone.
