The following should only be used as a guide and the installer should apply all Australian Standards, BCA/NZBC requirements, and best practices when installing a timber floor with Liquid Nails Direct Stick.
- All surfaces should be clean, structurally sound and level to 3mm in 3m. Out of level floors will increase the risk of hollow spots under strip timber overlay
- Liquid Nails VBS Vapour Barrier is recommended over concrete before applying Liquid Nails Direct Stick to prevent moisture migration and subsequent swelling of the timber overlay. Moisture content of the slab should be <5.5%, and moisture vapour transmission <15g/m2 per 24hr.
- Concrete slabs must be built in accordance with AS2870-1996 and have a finish equivalent to that obtained when using a steel trowel.
- Grind concrete to remove high spots, surface contaminants and weak surface layers
- Sand timber substrates to remove contaminants such as old glue or surface finishes and flatten any raised joints.
- Scoop or pour adhesive from the pail (or squeeze from sausage) to the application surface. Only spread as much adhesive as you can cover in 20 minutes
- Only use the trowel recommended for strip flooring. This provides the optimal spacing and height for adhesive ridges for bridging any gaps between overlay and sub-floor and wetting onto the underside of the boards, and helps the foaming compensate for slightly uneven surfaces. Refer to Technical Data Sheet for recommended trowel size and coverage.
- Lay the timber overlay onto prepared adhesive with a minimum of sideways movement using adequate pressure to ensure adhesive contact on each individual board.
- Fastening (or weighting) is recommended to secure timber during curing.
Refer to the Installation Guide for more detailed information.
Limitations:
- Must not be applied below 5°C
- Do not apply in greater thicknesses than that allowed by specified trowel (side movement and/or lifting may occur)
- Requires atmospheric moisture to cure
- Must not be applied below 5°C
- Do not apply in greater thicknesses than that allowed by specified trowel (side movement and/or lifting may occur)
- Selleys Technical Services should be consulted if any doubt exists in respect to floor contamination, or any concerns in relation to moisture.
- Should a self-levelling compound be required, consult manufacturer in relation to drying times and appropriate priming to adhere the compound to the substrate
- To protect timber from concrete slab moisture use Liquid Nails VBS Vapour Barrier.
- Clean up spills quickly before product cures.
- Clean tools and equipment with polyurethane clean-up solvent, lacquer thinners or acetone before product cures.
