Tools

Step 1 The direction

Note the direction indicated by the white arrow on the back of the vinyl backing.

Step 2 The size

Place the floor covering with the vinyl back side to the subfloor. Make sure the floor covering stands up about 5 cm against the walls/opening of the matwell.

Utility knife

Step 3 Removing vinyl edge

Removing the vinyl edge. Fold over half of the strip in the lengthwise direction. The vinyl backing is then visible. On the vinyl backing, mark a point 4 cm measured from the start of the vinyl edge. Do this by making a small cut with a utility knife. Repeat this incision with the same distance at multiple points along the length. Place the steel straightedge along the marked cuts and cut off the vinyl edge straight with a utility knife. Once the vinyl edge has been removed, you can put the floor covering back in place and press it firmly against the other strip.

Step 4 Placing the strips

Orient the white arrow in the same direction as the previously laid part. This arrow is printed on the back side of the vinyl backing. If this is not done, a colour difference may be visible.
Follow step 3 Repeat this procedure if you are laying multiple strips.

Seam roller

Step 5 Gluing

Fold the strips in half in the crosswise direction so the vinyl backing is visible. Apply the adhesive to the subfloor with an adhesive comb. Lay the floor covering back onto the adhesive. Now fold over the other half of the strips and apply adhesive to the subfloor. Lay the floor covering on the adhesive. The whole subfloor is now covered with adhesive. Lay the strips straight and tightly against each other in the adhesive. For a good bond, press the floor covering down firmly over the whole surface with a carpet roller. When the seams are pressed against each other properly, they will no longer be visible. If the length seam buckles, you can correct this with a knee kicker.

Step 6 Finishing touch

Press the floor covering firmly into the corner(s) and then cut the floor covering to the correct size with a utility knife. For best results, the seams can be worked with a seam roller and the edges with a punch.
