LVT adhesive

[DarisMulkin]

Deb have you ever tried the Shur-fast staples. You can knock a box off a counter and they don't break up like the others. I hate it when all I got is little pieces.
Oh and they are made in Canada.

If I get a 12' stick of metal from one of the local retailers, it's medium quality and costs $23. If I go out in the country to the other one, it's the best qualty and it costs $11. I have installed for both.

I have a small amount of Mannington MT711 which says for LVT

MT711 IS the prescribed adhesive for Mannington LVT, but remember that Adura has more of a vinyl backing than DuraCeramic does, so it depends upon whose LVT you are working with.

No wonder you never made any money your math is off. Thats 39 the way I figure it and that is if you started on this date in 1973.

That is all we can get for the pad tacker, somebody told me that Shur-fast bought the rights to the 5010 size. We still prefer to use the Duo-fast Gold chisel point divergent for the electric gun, everything else just jams. We have to go to one of the outside supply houses or HD for them.

Rusty, check with the mfr, I am sure you could buy them online.

I think you are into your 40th year............ depending on the day you started. Year ain't over till it's over.
I'm past 36, but 5 months away from 37.

Can I say that?
