Remarks : 

Technical information and safety data sheets of any laying materials and floor coverings used must be observed!

Allow floorings to air condition in the rooms before laying. The coverings must be relaxed and laid flat.
During the setting phase, the direct influence of heat/solar radiation, dynamic and point loads must be avoided.

When laying there is no guarantee that the coverings will be able to resume without sticking.
If the flooring is laid on existing flooring, the possibility of changes in the colour of the flooring cannot be excluded.
Removing the fixings from existing floor coverings can lead to damage to these coverings.
A possible joint formation of the flooring can also be reduced by the application of a fixation.

Wear protective gloves / eye protection.

* The mentioned values have been established in our laboratory and must be considered as guidelines in view of possible variations in climatic circumstances, subfloor compositions and layer thickness.

Consumption:
On impervious subfloors: 100 - 150 g/m².
On absorbent subfloors: 100 - 200 g/m².

Substrate:
  • 546 Eurofix Tackifier is suitable for any type of subfloor that has a good tensile and compression strength.
  • The subfloor should also be even, clean, permanently dry and free from grease and dirt according to the requirements of BS 8203 or DIN 18 365.
  • When applying cushion vinyl all non-self-supporting or self-supporting, not or insufficiently ventilated floors above the ground and non-self-supporting floors below the ground, but above the groundwater level, must be provided with a water vapour-tight moisture barrier (e.g. 3 coats of 026 Euroblock Multi).
  • When applying cushion vinyl on non-self-supporting floors below the ground level and in the groundwater, a sufficiently thick coating of cast asphalt must be applied.
  • In advance always seek our technical data sheets. In doubt about the application ask for technical advice.
  • For levelling the substrate use recommended Eurocol levelling compounds/primers.
  • Existing floor coverings must be firmly connected to the subfloor.
  • Parquet flooring must be sealed free of defects and waterproof.
  • Old separating layers, such as floor polish, old care product films, which can reduce adhesion, must be removed.
  • To make it easier to remove the fixation when changing the flooring at a later date, it is recommended that after removing old care products, the existing flooring is treated again with suitable Eurocol care products (e.g. 898 Eurocare Longlife) before the fixation
    is applied.
  • In advance always seek our technical data sheets. In doubt about the application ask for technical advice.

  • Wait for the adhesive to dry (fully transparent) before installing the floor covering.
  • Thereafter roll the floor covering well and press firmly.
  • Before applying 546 Eurofix Tackifier on old and smooth floor covering check the adhesion of the floor covering. Thereafter degrease the old and smooth floor covering thoroughly with 014 Euroclean.
  • When fixing on anhydrite floors apply a coat 049 Europrimer ABS with a lambswool roller and allow to dry for 24 hours.
  • In general the floor covering can easily be removed from the subfloor afterwards.
  • Remove fresh adhesive spots immediately with water.

Working conditions:
