Marine Adhesive for Boat Carpet & Pontoon Vinyl Flooring

• L590 Marine Adhesive, flooring fabric, and substrate should be acclimatized for at least 24 hours prior to installation. Failure to properly acclimate voids any and all warranties.
  
• One substrate is prepped as described in the subfloor surfaces section, loose-fit flooring to ensure proper fit.
• User may want to leave a few inches of extra fabric at the edges so that any movement in installation can be corrected.
• After loose-fitting, begin at one end of the boat and roll the fabric (face in) back toward the middle of the work area. Try to work in sections.
• L590 may be brushed on, rolled on, or troweled (w/ 5/32” U-notch trowel). L590 will cure from the outside-in.
  
• This means if it is left open to the air long enough to form a "skin”, the adhesive should be immediately scraped off and disposed, then begin application over with fresh adhesive.
  
• L590 is not a contact adhesive, therefore there is no need for tack-time. Simply place fabric onto wet adhesive, work out wrinkles, and make adjustments right away.
• Apply L590 to the substrate at a rate of approximately 1 gallon / 120 square feet (heavier applications will take longer to cure.)
• One adhesive is spread, unroll fabric over coated substrate and smooth out any wrinkles with a smooth straight edge (the core that the fabric came rolled on works great)
• Once the area is covered, roll un-glued fabric from the other end, and repeat the application process.
  
• Open time with vary with temperature and humidity, but once fabric is applied and wrinkles worked out, avoid foot-traffic or weather exposure (including cold temperatures) for 24-48 hours.
• Exact sure times will vary with atmospheric conditions.
• You may check for cure by examining edges, but DO NOT tug at fabric, as pulling too hard will tear fabric or pull stitches or backing once adhesive has cured.
  
• Once 590 has cured, trim any excess fabric from edges with sharp scissors, or roll edges and install j-channel.
• With proper care and maintenance, your new flooring should provide you with years of great service!
