Coin Flex Tiles

Coin Flex Tiles are one of our most popular garage floor tiles. The raised coin pattern design is not only very attractive but also helpful to prevent slipping when wet. Flex tiles are easy to clean, highly chemical resistant, and interlock tightly to form durable and long-lasting flooring for garages. Made in USA, these are not only durable enough for garage use, but versatile enough to be used in home gyms, in mud and utility rooms, as storage shed flooring, as trade show flooring, as a retail display flooring, in airport hangars, and as a floor surface in warehouses or manufacturing facilities! 

Recommended Uses - Smooth Flex tiles have been used successfully as a tile flooring option in entrance ways, as basement flooring, in laundry and utility rooms, as garage flooring, in rec rooms and bathrooms, in kid’s play rooms, dens, offices, locker rooms, and any other place where a decorative and easy to install floor tile option would be useful.

Note: Flex tile colors are produced in batches, which can lead to color variations in your order. All colors may present some color variation, but Black, Dark Gray, and Light Gray can produce the most. These three colors can vary greatly between batches and thus it is recommended that you order more flooring than is needed for mistakes and replacements. This, in turn, gives you the greatest chance to keep continuity across your floor. Batching will also affect color variation between samples and your order with Black, Dark Gray, and Light Gray showing the most variation.

Installation Instructions for Flex Tiles

Preparation

1. Surface Cleaning:
   • Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and free of debris, grease, oil, and other contaminants.
2. Subfloor Suitability:
   • Suitable for installation over concrete, wood, or any hard, flat surface.
3. Acclimatization:
   • Allow the Flex Nitro Tiles to acclimate in the installation area for at least 24 hours at room temperature.

Installation

1. Planning Layout:
   • Lay out the tiles in the desired pattern before snapping them together to ensure you are satisfied with the design.
   • Plan your pattern ahead of time, especially if using multiple colors, to avoid mistakes.
2. Connecting Tiles:
   • Begin installation from one corner of the room and work your way out.
   • Align the tiles so that the tabs of one tile fit into the loops of the next tile.
   • Gently press down until you hear a click, indicating the tiles are locked together.
3. Cutting to Fit:
   • Trim the tiles to fit around edges and corners using a utility knife with a sharp blade and a straight edge.
   • Leave a small gap (approximately 1/4 inch) around the edges to allow for expansion and contraction.
4. Securing the Tiles:
   • For smaller areas, the weight of the tiles may be sufficient to keep them in place.
   • For larger areas or high-traffic zones, use double-sided tape or adhesive around the perimeter and seams for extra stability.
   • Apply the adhesive according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Post-Installation

1. Rolling:
   • Use a floor roller to ensure the tiles adhere properly and to remove any air bubbles.
2. Initial Cleaning:
   • After installation, clean the floor with a mild soap and water solution to remove any installation debris.
3. Inspection:
   • Inspect the installation to ensure all edges are secure and seams are properly sealed.
