Floor Preparation
The floor/step surface to receive the adhesive-only fixing must be completely free of dust, grease, paint or other contaminants likely to prevent or compromise the effective bonding of the profile to the substrate material.
Additional Information
Stick FixTM should not be used where good chemical or UV resistance is required.
The specifier/installer should determine the suitability of adhesive-only fixing having taken into account the nature of the application and the type and condition of the substrate.
