How To Install Peel & Stick Floor Tiles

How To

Install Peel & Stick Vinyl Floor Tiles

Step 1: Prepare Tiles and Clean Surface

Lay tile package flat and allow 48 hours to acclimate to room temperature of at least 65°F (18°C)..
Be sure the surface is clean, smooth, flat and dry before applying. Area must be free of grease, dirt, wax, uv coating, and other oils. Inspect tiles to ensure tiles are free of defects.
Make sure to not apply tiles to loose or uneven flooring, and radiant heated floors.
If installing over concrete, a primer adhesive is necessary for a secure application.

DO NOT Apply to loose or uneven flooring.
DO NOT Apply over radiant heated floors.
DO NOT Use additional adhesives.
DO NOT Apply over concrete with excessive moisture or alkalinity.
DO NOT Apply where the temperature regularly falls below 55°F or over 85°F.
DO NOT Apply to heavily textured flooring.

FOR A SUPERIOR BOND Use FloorPops™ Peel & Stick Primer, or similar bond enhacing primer.
Not intended for outdoor locations such as sunrooms, porches, and garages.

Step 2: Find the Center of Your Room

Step 3: Lay Out Tiles

Step 4: Remove Backing and Apply Tiles to Floor

Starting from the center of the room, remove backing from your first tile and press firmly into place. Avoid touching adhesive - dust, dirt and oils will affect its strength.
Rotate next tile to find pattern match*, and install tightly against the side of the first tile. Working on one quarter of the room at a time, apply tiles in a step pattern.

You may find a slight variation in design match from tile to tile. This variation should not affect the overall look of your floor. Be sure to rotate tiles for best look.

Installation Tips

If necessary, use a straight edge and utility knife to trim tiles to fit, when you reach the edge of your walls.
Use a tile roller over the entire floor to strengthen the bond between the tile and floor. A 75 – 100 lb roller is recommended.
It is also recommended that baseboards are lifted and reinstalled over the new tiles to allow room for expansion. If tiles are laid snug against the wall, the pressure caused by expansion can cause them to lift

Cleaning Your Tiles

DO

Allow 5 days to clean tiles after application.
Use a vinyl floor cleaner.
Sweep, mop, vacuum, and/or dust as desired.

DO NOT

Do not clean with detergents, soaps, harsh chemicals, bleach, one-step cleaners, wax, or an excessive amount of water.

Are FloorPops™ really permanent/are they removable?

To be durable enough to withstand foot traffic, FloorPops were designed with a strong adhesive. This means that they are NOT removable in the sense that our peel and stick NuWallpaper™ or wall decals are removable/temporary. They can, however, be removed should you choose to- we recommend using a scraper or an object with a thin, flat surface to wiggle under a seam and pop a corner of the tile up. From there you should be able to peel off the tile with your hands. Please note that as the adhesive is strong, if installed on a painted surface FloorPops™ are likely to lift the paint. It is also possible that some adhesive residue may be left behind when FloorPops™ are removed.
