• Product FAQs

  Q: Can I remove the adhesive if I make a mistake?
  A: While it’s easier to correct mistakes before the adhesive has fully dried, you can use a damp cloth to remove excess adhesive. Once cured, removal may be more difficult, so it’s important to work quickly and clean up spills as you go.
  Q: How much adhesive do I need for my flooring project?
  A: The amount of adhesive you need depends on the area to be covered and the type of wood flooring you’re using. Typically, a 6.5kg tub will cover around 15-20 square metres, but always refer to the product’s instructions for precise coverage.
  Q: Is this adhesive waterproof?
  A: This adhesive is water-resistant, making it suitable for use in areas with occasional moisture, such as kitchens or bathrooms. However, it’s not recommended for direct exposure to water, such as in areas prone to flooding.
  Q: How long does wood flooring adhesive take to dry?
  A: Drying time can vary depending on the product and environmental conditions, but typically, it takes between 24 to 48 hours to fully cure. It’s important to avoid foot traffic and heavy objects during this time for the bond to remain strong.
  Q: Can this adhesive be used on all types of wood flooring?
  A: Yes, this adhesive is suitable for most wood flooring types, including engineered and solid wood. However, always check the manufacturer’s guidelines to confirm compatibility with your specific wood flooring.
  Q: How do I apply wood flooring adhesive correctly?
  A: To apply wood flooring adhesive, first make sure that the surface is clean and dry. Use a notched trowel to spread the adhesive evenly across the floor.
