Was this helpful?I have an 11' x 17' single car garage. Can I lay down your product without adhesive? I have a similar product on it now, but it is only 7 feet and has laid in place for 10 years with no problem. Now I wish to replace with a wider mat. I plan to buy the commercial-grade.
You can, and we recommend installing our Diamond Nitro Rolls without adhesive. These rolls are heavy enough to lay flat and stay in place when driven over. They are also easily removed to clean, both under the mat and the surface of the mat. If for some reason you wanted to do a more permanent install, you can use our double-sided tape around the edges or a pressure sensitive adhesive around the edges.

If you are installing our Diamond Nitro Rolls over a steel plate, you can use either double-sided tape or adhesive. If you use our polyurethane adhesive, you may have to use a brillo pad to scuff up the steel a bit to allow the glue to adhere properly.
Was this helpful?Do you have information on this product concerning low VOC?
Our Diamond Nitro Rolls are virtually VOC free. The initial smell you get with these rolls is very light and similar to new plastic items that you buy from the store like toys, appliances, and the like. If the smell were to be too much, you can always clean the floor with a mild soap and water solution and let the flooring air dry.

Was this helpful?I am thinking about putting this on a shed floor. Will my lawn tractor's tire chains tear it up?
Tire chains could cause some damage to our Diamond Nitro Rolls. We have had our nitro rolls installed in spaces where chains and treads have been used on them with great success, but if for any reason the chain was damaged and had a sharp piece on it, there could be damage caused.
Was this helpful?I have a Subaru Outback and I was wondering if the mat would stop things from sliding in the back compartment?
Our Diamond Nitro Rolls won't really help with keeping your items from shifting your back compartment. It will be better than carpet, but not by much. If you really want to keep things from sliding around, we would recommend using our rubber flooring. These have a very high coefficient of friction and will make it tough for things to slide around on.
Was this helpful?I want to install the diamond roll in an enclosed trailer with plywood flooring. The inside of the trailer is subject to extreme heat cycles being outdoors. I will be using the trailer to haul motorcycles and UTV's so I don't want the flooring to curl or move. What type of adhesive do you recommend?
When installing our Diamond Nitro Rolls in a trailer, we recommend two types of glue. If you are looking for the most permanent install, we would recommend using our Polyurethane adhesive. This adhesive bonds very tightly and drys hard. The second glue that we recommend is our 5900 Series adhesive. This is a pressure sensitive adhesive that will allow you to pull up your flooring if need be. This glue also bonds tightly with the use of added pressure.

Was this helpful?How does the mat stay in place without adhesive?
The weight of our Diamond Nitro Rolls helps to keep them in place. Under normal driving conditions found in a garage, these rolls won't move, but if you all of sudden saw Racer X trying to beat you in or out of your garage and you decided to peel out, there would be a chance the roll may move. If this happens a lot, you can just add some double sided tape to your installation or some pressure sensitive adhesive.
