Precautions
In case of eye contact, flush with water for 10-15 minutes. If irritation persists, contact a physician. If prolonged skin contact causes irritation, wash with soap and water. If swallowed, consult a physician. Safety glasses and gloves are recommended if contact is expected.

Sustainability
Recommended Substrates
- Wall applications:
- Drywall, green board or equivalent moisture resistant board
- Floor applications:
- On or above grade concrete (within moisture and alkalinity specifications)
- Well-bonded and properly prepared tile or sheet goods
- APA underlayment grade plywood
- Radiant heated floors (85°F and below)
Wall Substrate Preparation
The substrate temperature must be at least 5°F higher than the dew point. In accordance with the recommendations from adhesive manufacturers, use drywall, green board or equivalent moisture resistant board, if it is only on vertical services, as a wall substrate. Parterre does not warrant the substrate or adhesive for any failures.
Wall Application
Use a 3/8” paint roller to apply the adhesive. Coverage must not exceed 400 sq. ft./gal porous or slightly textured surfaces will require two coats. Allow the first coat to dry completely to touch before applying the second coat. Once the roller-applied adhesive has dried, you may begin the placement of the plank or tile. Do not spread more adhesive than can be covered in four hours.
Wall Installation
Once the luxury vinyl is installed on the wall, roll with an adjustable hand or “laminate” roller to promote adhesive transfer and maximize adhesion. In high humidity locations, additional tack time may be necessary for proper adhesion. Make sure the adhesive is dry to touch before starting the installation.
Floor Substrate Preparation
NOTE: A CLEAN SUBSTRATE IS ESSENTIAL! Suitable substrates include on or above grade concrete (within moisture and alkalinity specifications), well-bonded and properly prepared tile or sheet goods, APA underlayment grade plywood and radiant heated floors (85°F and below). All substrates must be clean, smooth, dry and free of waxes, existing adhesives, dirt, dust, grease, oil, paint curing compounds or sealers. This adhesive cannot be used over chemically cleaned substrates. The installation site must be acclimated with HVAC in operation. The substrate and room temperature, as well as flooring materials and adhesive, must be maintained at 65°-85°F and the humidity between 40%-65% for 48 hours prior to, during, and after the testing and installation. The substrate temperature must be at least 5°F higher than the Dew Point. Lateral may be used for installations over concrete substrates with up to 90% in-situ Relative Humidity per latest version of ASTM F2170, and pH between 8.0–10.0. Testing the substrate with an impedance meter (refer to ASTM F2659) is recommended due to possible issues related to topical moisture from dew point conditions. Substrate surfaces must not read over 3.5% on the impedance meter. All substrate preparation and testing procedures must conform to appropriate ASTM F710 guidelines and comply with the floor-covering manufacturer’s specification.
Floor Application
A roll-on application method is recommended to achieve a smooth even full-spread coating. Spread rate and drying time of the adhesive will depend on the porosity and texture of the substrates and the ambient temperature and relative humidity.
- KEEP PAINT ROLLER WET! Do not apply pressure to the roller, allow it to freely roll over the substrate.
- ADHESIVE COVERAGE MUST NOT EXCEED 400 ft2/gal. Overly absorbent or rough substrates will require two coats. Once the coating has dried, it must be kept clean and apart from any contact with other surfaces until ready to begin the bonding process. Do not spread more adhesive than can be covered in 4 hours.
Floor Installation
Once the Lateral has dried, tiles can be slid and easily shifted into position to achieve a precise tight fit and proper alignment before pressing or rolling assembly. Once in place, apply pressure while rolling with a hand roller to lock tiles in place. When all the tiles are down, roll the entire assembly in both directions with 100 lb. roller to achieve a full contact bond. Note: After the assembly is rolled or pressed into place tiles are locked in place and re-positioning is usually not possible. Normal traffic and rolling loads may be allowed as soon as the installation, finishing and clean-up are complete.
