pill and stick want stick to floor?

Question

We just installed pill and stick in our kitchen, my problem is, it slides out of place when walked on, what to do, Thanks

Answer 1

Peel and stick is good, but you should also lay down primer first. Its a milky substance that drys white and when you peel and stick your tile it sticks and its one for good.
Sounds like you didnlt use primer so your gonna have problems. Which ever ones move or shift, I would pull up gently if you can and paste them down with glue.

Answer 2

absolutely right. If the floor was not clean and dry before applying the peal and stick flooring, your going to have a hard time getting it to stay in place. Don't worry there is a solution. Very carefully remove the ones you are having issues with, be careful not to tear, break or bend tiles. Buy a spray on adhesive from the local hardware - the ones I seen are kind of like a thinned out version of liquid nails, and reapply the glued tile to the floor after you thoroughly clean under the tile. Do one tile at a time, and do not use to much adhesive, the tile will hydroplane onto the other tiles and then you will really have a mess. Put some weight on it overnight, like a phone book etc... then you should be good to go. A lot of people see this when using peel and stick, even over time the tiles start to shift, pop up in the corners, and move around, this simple solution should work for those also. Good Luck!

Pill & Stick is the cheapest stuff that you can use for a flooring. The problem with this stuff is the floor has to be super clean or have a fresh coat of paint...Something for the sticky side to stick to...I can tell you that the ones already moving have too much dirt and dust on them and it won't stick to the floor anymore. Glue down VCT is a better alturnitive to that stuff you have....good luck

Answer 4

Go to a carpet dealer and get a gallon of mastic,which in the business is called thin and clear,because you put it down thin and when it turns clesr your ready to put your tile down. Hindsight is rough but when putting down peel and stick I always used clear and thin for a muuuuuuuch better hold. Good Luck

Answer 5

i'd do the pergo floor with the sizzling water warm temperature technique under it. A chum did it under the kitchen tile and timber flooring, it became once accessible to position in and no longer that prime-priced. and allow me only say, "guy, warm kitchen tile in the morning a take care of to the ft!" also this form you'd be able to apply self-discipline rugs so that you no longer struck with the equivalent wall to wall carpet for years on end. continual adorning and rearranging is plausible.

Answer 6

you should not walk on it for a few days but i know how it is....I would go to home depot and get some flooring adhesiveand put a little under the problem tiles

Answer 7

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE SPRAY ON, BUT IT IS QUICK AND EASY
