DROP & DONE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
OPTIONS
1. Drop&Done can be installed loose-lay with two-sided tape around the perimeter of the room.
2. Drop&Done can be installed full spread with release adhesives such as Mapei Eco 810.
3. For heavy duty commercial applications, Drop&Done can be glued down permanently with Mapei Eco
360 or Henry’s 422.
4. For installation over radiant heat, we recommend to use the permanent glue method.
SUBFLOOR
Drop & Done can be installed over any hard and flat surface. You do not have to double your plywood. You do
not have to remove existing vinyl. Over ceramic tiles, you need to fill the grout lines with a proper leveling
compound. Subfloor must be even within 1/8" over 6'.
Caution; Drop & Done is not suitable for installation over carpet.
PREPARATION
The material should be allowed to acclimatize at room temperature (approx 20 ˚C) for 48 hours prior to
installation. New concrete floors need to dry out for at least 60 days prior to installation. Make sure the floor is
smooth, clean, and free of wax, grease, oil or dust. Uneven areas must be fixed with a proper leveling
compound.
INSTALLATION:
Install two-sided tape (6 to 8 cm wide) or apply a 10 cm wide strip of release adhesive around the perimeter of
the room. If you use glue, let the adhesive dry for 20 minutes or until it can be touched without transfer.
For full spread installation with release or permanent adhesive, follow instructions on the pales, Begin laying
your floor SNUG along the longest wall. Lay a complete row of planks and cut the last one to fit against the
opposite wall. The cut edge should always face the wall. When you reach the last row, cut the last plank to fit
SNUG. The plank should not be forced into place. For best visual effect, always stagger the planks from row to
row.
