laminate floating floor
Friend ( yes really a friend, not me - I wouldnt have the stuff ) has bought a whole pile of this stuff and asked me to lay it. Its the glue together variety. I've done a couple of click together floaters but the question is how do you glue this stuff together then walk on it, to keep laying, or is it a matter of laying a few rows ( have to start long run thru a hallway and into rooms at each end ) , let it go off, then keep going. Or does glue go off pretty quick. I am especially worried about end joins which havent got much glue line across width to keep straitghness of row intact. I'd imagine glue goes in groove, not on tongue, is this correct. Which glue ( not sure if she gets the glue from supplier or not.??
Thanks people"World's oldest kid"

Hi AndrewPatrol
did he buy it from a wood shop?
Any instructions?
The flooring shop has videos on how to do it and any equipment needed, you hire it.
Otherwise, when I was researching solid flooring I came across lots od site with instructions. "typing DIT floating floors"
Sorry, I have only done - no glue click flooring"

just in case people are interested------
Three rows are done in a dry run, on the longest axis, then pulled up and glued. This gives a strait line to start gluing the rest of the boards. Glue bottles come with a special nozzle which makes life easy. This stuff goes together easier than the click systems. flooring cant be walked on for 12/24 hrs ( depends on flooring or glue bottle instructions ) so you have to work back towards the door."World's oldest kid"
