Can you stick vinyl on primor.

If you re installing new plywood use galvanized screws to fasten it and countersink the screw heads. I suggest using armstrong s new beginning s floor stripper. Ivc says you can direct glue down to oriented strand board osb all others say no. First of all ivc says the so i researched this.

Did you know that you can transfer iron on vinyl to wood. Vinyl flooring cannot effectively bridge over or smooth out substrate imperfections in the way that thicker inflexible floor coverings can. Solid hardwood or engineered wood for example can bridge gaps holes and seams as well as smooth over surface embossing. You can apply peel and stick vinyl tiles to an existing floor without first putting down an underlayment if your current floor is in good condition.

An adhesive primer will make a nice smooth surface for the glue on the vinyl tiles to stick to ensuring that your tiles will actually stick to the floor. If you are going over an existing vinyl or linoleum flooring you will need to strip the old finish off first. Keep in mind that vinyl flooring is thin soft and flexible. You won t need grout if you butt the tiles.

In some cases the tiles can be placed right on top of an existing vinyl. First of all ivc says the osb must be an underlayment panel and must be underlayment grade as specified and warranted by the manufacture not subfloor grade which is used in new home construction. You can find armstrong peel and stick vinyl tiles at local flooring stores along with big box retailers like lowes and home depot. It doesn t have the same shiny appearance of stick on vinyl and looks a lot more like paint.

So i researched this. Loose areas on an existing plywood subfloor can cause peel and stick tiles to lift over. Stick on vinyl tiles are meant to make installation easy but the work is doubled if you have to remove the existing floor.
