Tools needed: rubber hand roller or rubber

mallet.

1. Individual pieces should be spaced a

minimum of 12 mm apart and a maximum

of 50 mm apart.

2. Round the corners of any pieces cut from

rolls.

3. Peel protective liner back about 50 mm

from one end and position piece on surface.

Note: minimize touching (contaminating)

adhesive with fingers.

4. Continue to remove liner and press firmly

in place as liner is removed.

5. For small pieces, peel liner off piece.

Holding piece by its edges, curve it gently

with the adhesive side out. Align the middle

of the piece over the middle of the target

surface and press down.

6. Finally press into firm contact with surface

using a rubber hand roller by starting in

middle and rolling out towards edges.

7. For applying 3M Safety-Walk Conformable

treads, use a soft-headed rubber mallet

to ensure product conformability to surface.

Pound edges extra hard.

8. On steps, apply 3M Safety-Walk materials

12 to 15 mm from stair edge to prevent

edge curl and premature wear.

Prime coat with a 3M primer is recommended

for proper adhesion.

3M Safety-Walk materials can be applied on

most painted surfaces which are in good condition

and will adhere as well as the base

paint. Painted surfaces must be thoroughly dry

before the application.

Wood surfaces must be sealed or painted

before application of 3M Safety-Walk materials.

Do not apply 3M Safety-Walk materials on

surfaces with constant water contact or moisture

seepage.

Do not bridge over grouting, cracks or breaks

in all surfaces. Cut into smaller pieces.

Application of 3M Safety-Walk materials is

not recommended for quarry tile in commercial

kitchens.

For extra protection from excessive moisture

or liquids (not constant moisture) use 3M

Scotch-Seal™ 1103 Clear Sealant to protect

the edges of 3M Safety-Walk materials against

penetration of liquids.

1. Properly clean the floor following “surface

preparation” procedure.

2. Use a paint brush and paint on a thin coat

of primer where the 3M Safety-Walk materials

are to be applied.

3. Allow the primed area to dry thoroughly

(no evidence of stickiness or tackiness) before

applying 3M Safety-Walk material.

Note : Primers are not recommended with the

clear grade because the transparency benefit is

then lost.

Periodically inspect product application to

maintain product effectiveness.

Keep free of dirt and other residue that might

impair functionality.

General Purpose, Coarse and Conformable

treads should be decked-brushed regularly.

Fine Resilient, Medium Resilient materials

should be mopped or deck-brushed regularly.

Use appropriate degreaser/cleaner as a general

maintenance cleaner to keep material and

surrounding surfaces free of soil and grease.

To remove and replace worn or torn material:

1. Start by pulling up old material. Use of a

heat gun and a scraper will assist in this

process.

2. After total removal of old materials,

use a degreaser or solvent

based cleaner to remove adhesive

residues before proceeding with reapplication

of 3M Safety-Walk materials.
