Before installing the carpet, make sure the ambient temperature is between 65 and 95 degrees. The installation surface must be dry and free of debris. Spread adhesive directly on the surface. Not on the back of the carpet. 3/32" x 3/32" x 3/32" V notch trowel. Allow adhesive to tack. Indoor/Outdoor grade for outdoor use. If the glue is not allowed to tack or the humidity is too high, the carpet will not adhere to it. Non woven needle punch carpet does not have a non woven backing, so any uncured adhesive may come through the carpet. Do not use a roller on this carpet. Roll the carpet using the carpet core or the flat end of a push broom. There is a pile direction, so every section must run in the same direction. To remove seams, simply rub them with your fingers. Excess adhesive can be removed with a mild soap and warm water solution. Do not walk on the carpet during or immediately after installation. No foot traffic on the carpet for at least 24 hours to allow the adhesive to cure
To keep your rooms clean and inviting, carpets should be vacuumed frequently. Spills should be removed immediately with an absorbent cotton cloth and clean water. Periodic maintenance can be performed as needed using a hot water extraction-cleaning machine.
This carpet is waterproof as well as water permeable. Liquids will not sit on top and absorb into the fibers. The fibers will resist the moisture and allow the liquid to seep through.
