7. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS_  Elite PUR should be installed in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations  Training Centre is available for installation training to installers SUB-FLOOR_  Sub-floors must be smooth, hard, clean, and dry before laying commences  The final appearance and durability of any resilient flooring installation depends largely on the condition of the surface upon which it is laid  A good sub-floor is vital in achieving a satisfactory adhesive bond and long-term durability  Uneven, solid or suspended timber floors may need preparation to meet the required standard Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

8. SUB-FLOOR_  All sub-floors must be tested for moisture content prior to installation  To prevent problems associated with rising damp - it is essential that a damp- proof membrane be incorporated beneath the sub-floor  The South African Standard Building Regulations require that all sub-floors in contact with the ground are so constructed as to be damp-proof  Water is an integral part of the construction of a sub-floor - the amount of water used depends on the type of sub-floor, the required structural strength and the extent of curing  It is impossible to state a time period after which a sub-floor may be considered dry enough upon which to lay flooring - factors such as ambient temperature, relative humidity, thickness of the slab, type of finish required and methods used to cure the concrete, will affect this period  There are various methods of testing the moisture content within the sub-floor, which includes the use of a Hygrometer – the most practical and accurate instrument Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

9. CLIMATIZATION_ Elite PUR must be allowed to relax for 24 hours in a uniform room temperature between 18°C and 27°C prior to installation ADHESIVE_  The recommended adhesive for Elite PUR is FloorworX No. 62 acrylic adhesive  Adhesive to be spread using a trowel fitted with an A2 notched blade at a rate of between 5.5m2 and 6.5m2 per litre POST INSTALLATION_  It is essential that during the course of installation the material be rolled in both directions with an articulated 68kg three section metal floor roller Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

10. MAINTENANCE_PREVENTIVE CARE  Approximately 80% of the dirt and soiling that has to be cleaned off a floor has been trafficked in from outside the building. More than 90% of that soiling can be avoided by the use of an effective entrance matting system  When less dirt is trafficked through the entrance there will be a reduction in maintenance requirements.  Regular cleaning is more cost-effective and hygienic than occasional heavy duty cleaning  Wipe up any grease and oil spills immediately and treat stains as soon as they are observed  Black rubber wheels and rubber furniture feet can discolour the floorcovering - hard plastic is preferred  Always follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions regarding the use of cleaning chemicals Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

11. MAINTENANCE_POST INSTALLATION SITE CLEAN  Floor maintenance begins immediately after the completion of installation  The initial step is to remove any loose dirt or debris using a dry mop, broom or vacuum  Sand, construction debris and sharp-edged objects may result in irreparable damage being inflicted to the new floor.  Remove any visible adhesive residue using a damp cloth, once the adhesive has cured it will be difficult to remove  If other trades are working in the building after the installation of the flooring, the floor must be protected from subsequent damage by the use of thick paper, cardboard or hard board.  No wet maintenance must take place until 72 hours (3 days) have elapsed from the time of installation - this is to ensure that the adhesive has sufficient time to cure properly and develop full bond strength Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

12. MAINTENANCE_PUR COATED FLOORS  PUR coated vinyl floors are protected by means of various cross-linked polyurethane surface treatments that are applied as part of the manufacturing process  The purpose of these treatments is to protect the floor from the damaging effects of traffic induced scuffing and soiling, but these treatments will only be effective in conjunction with a daily and periodic cleaning and maintenance regime in conjunction with a correctly dimensioned entrance mat. In the event of failure to effectively maintain the thin PUR coating, the user can utilise a sealer-based maintenance program as described for uncoated floors.

13. MAINTENANCE_INITIAL CLEAN  Dust mop or vacuum the floor to remove loose soil and dust  Scrub the floor using a solution of FloorworX Maintain diluted 1:10 with clean water, with a rotary machine fitted with a blue pad  Remove the residue immediately after scrubbing using a wet/dry vacuum  Rinse with clean water using a flat mop and allow the floor to dry  Dry buff the floor using a rotary or high speed machine fitted with a white pad  For higher traffic areas, apply FloorworX Spray Buff in a fine stream or mist onto the floor in front of a rotary machine fitted with a red pad and work in until dry  FloorworX Spray Buff applied in this manner at the rate of 600m2 per litre assists in maintaining a smooth surface and constant level of gloss Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

14. MAINTENANCE_REGULAR CLEANING  Dust mop with flat mop or vacuum on a daily basis to remove dust and loose dirt  Treat spills, spots and stains immediately  Spot clean by hand with a red or white pad and a diluted solution of FloorworX Maintain, working from the outside of the mark to its centre  Dry buff or spray buff periodically, as described in 4.1 Initial Clean above  The frequency of dry buffing or spray buffing is dependent on the amount of foot traffic and the effectiveness of the daily cleaning regime Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

15. MAINTENANCE_PERIODIC MAINTENANCE  Scrub the floor using a solution of FloorworX Maintain diluted 1:10 with clean water, with a rotary machine fitted with a blue pad  Remove the residue immediately after scrubbing using a wet/dry vacuum  Rinse with clean water using a flat mop and allow the floor to dry  Dry buff the floor using a rotary or high speed machine fitted with a white pad  For higher traffic areas, apply FloorworX Spray Buff in a fine stream or mist onto the floor in front of a rotary machine fitted with a red pad and work in until dry  FloorworX Spray Buff applied in this manner at the rate of 600m2 per litre assists in maintaining a smooth surface and constant level of gloss Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

16. MAINTENANCE_PERMANENT DAMAGE  If the cleaning and maintenance regime as described above is unable to prevent permanent damage being done to the PUR coating as a result of traffic-induced scuffing and soiling, then it may be necessary to adopt the same strip, seal and spray buff approach as has been described for UNCOATED VINYL FLOORING Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.

17. MAINTENANCE_STRIP AND SEAL (PERMANENT DAMAGE ONLY)  Using a lambswool applicator, apply a thin, even coating of FloorworX Silk Matt or Gloss Sealer at a rate of 20m2 per litre  Allow sufficient time for the coating to dry thoroughly  Apply the 2nd coat of FloorworX Silk Matt or Gloss Sealer at right angles to the initial coat and allow sufficient time to dry thoroughly  Ensure that the floor is not trafficked between coats  Apply the 3rd and final coat of FloorworX Silk Matt or Gloss Sealer at right angles to the previous coat and allow sufficient time to dry thoroughly  Once the initial strip and seal process is complete, ensure that the mops, pads and lambswool applicators are rinsed thoroughly in warm water and allowed to dry for re-use Elite PUR Vinyl Sheeting Elite PUR is a high quality polyurethane coated, non-directional, homogeneous vinyl floor covering available in sheeting form with transparent elements included in the pattern.
