It is important that sub-floors be firm, non-yielding, smooth, even, clean, dry and free from foreign material.

On contact floors i.e. floors on ground, check for rising damp by placing squares of roofing felt or plastic sheet (approximately 1 meter x 1 meter) at various points and leave overnight.

If dry, no moisture will be present on underside of membrane when lifted the following morning.

Since woodblock preservatives may contain solvents, ensure blocks are solvent free.

No special primer required.

Stir well before use.

±1 m²/litre spread grip-a-bloc evenly, using a notched steel trowel (or similar to a Vicker 24B course serrated trowel) held at an angle of 60º.

Spread adhesive evenly using a notched trowel held at an angle of 60 degrees. When laying 22 mm woodblocks, notches should be cut 5 mm deep at an angle of 45 degrees at 12 mm centres. Do not allow adhesive to set before laying blocks.

Blocks must be laid immediately into wet adhesive. For individual blocks, it is convenient to dip the blocks. Pour about 6 mm of adhesive into a shallow dish.

Do not sand blocks for 48 hours after completion.

Dry in approximately 60 minutes.

1 L, 5 L and 25 L containers.

Shelf life of 12 months, but shorter if in extreme conditions. Keep tightly sealed in a dry cool place in the original packaging.

Since woodblock preservatives may contain bitumen solvents, ensure blocks are solvent-free.
