Regrind Rolls

When installing rolled rubber flooring, choosing the right installation method for your project is important. The most common methods of adhering rubber rolls to the subfloor are:

Double-Sided Tape Installation: 

• First, clean your subfloor so it is free of all dust, dirt, and debris.
• Loose lay your rolls in the room as you would like them to look after a complete installation. Let the rolls relax for 24-48 hours to ensure the proper installation of your new flooring.
• Note: Rolls may be directional, so make sure the color matches on each roll. If the roll colors do not match, flip them or turn them 180 degrees to ensure the color matches.
• Use a straight edge and a utility knife with a fresh blade to make any necessary cuts to the rolls to fit them into the room. We recommend leaving a gap around the rolls, roughly the thickness of the rolls used to account for expansion and contraction.
• Roll up the rolls at one end of the room. Apply double-sided tape to the floor along the perimeter of each roll.
• Place the rubber rolls back into position on top of the double-sided tape.

Glue Installation:

• First, clean your subfloor so it is free of all dirt, dust, and debris. Also, when gluing your flooring down, it is recommended that the subfloor be free of any moisture.
• Loose lay your rolls in the room as you would like them to look after a complete installation. Let the rolls relax for 24-48 hours to ensure the proper installation of your new flooring.
• Note: Rolls may be directional, so make sure the color matches on each roll. If the roll colors do not match, flip them or turn them 180 degrees to ensure the color matches.
• Use a straight edge and a utility knife with a fresh blade to make any necessary cuts to the rolls to fit them into the room. We recommend leaving a gap around the rolls, roughly the thickness of the rolls used to account for expansion and contraction.
• Roll up the rolls at one end of the room. Spread a light layer of polyurethane adhesive that is 10’ long (maximum) and unroll the flooring into the adhesive 10’ at a time.
• Repeat this step every 10’ of roll length until the entire roll has been unrolled into its desired position.
• After all of the rolls have been glued down, it is often recommended that a 100-pound roller be used on the floor to guarantee good adherence to the subfloor. Walking on the flooring in small, choppy steps may also work if a roller is unavailable.

Keeping your Rubber Rolls clean and looking their best is easy with these simple maintenance tips:

• Sweep or vacuum loose debris regularly to prevent buildup and minimize the risk of slips and falls.
• Simply damp mop the rubber rolls with a mild soap and water solution for a deeper clean. We recommend using Dawn dish detergent or Tide laundry detergent.

Do not use solvent or oil-based cleaners like Pinesol, Lysol, Murphy's Oil Soap, WD40, paint thinner, or similar products. These cleaners can break down the flooring over time and cause damage.
