G-Floor Installation Tips
Install Roll-Out Garage Flooring in 30 to 60 minutes!
Minimal Tools.. No Adhesives Required!
- For best results, unpack and install product as soon as possible. The longer it is packed in a tight roll, the longer it will take to lay flat. Initially, the Garage Floor Protector will have curl marks due to being rolled or folded during shipment. This is normal and will disappear.
- Vacuum and shampoo garage floor. Remove any oil and chemical residue.
- Unroll product on garage floor. Edges may be butted together or overlapped for seamless appearance. Overlap Note: Flooring that is 10' wide, has an "overlap flap" (approximately 1.5" to 2" wide) of unpatterned material running down
BOTH sides. Flooring that is 9' wide or less, has no "overlap flap".
Unroll option 1: For lay flat results, unroll Garage Floor Protector in the sunlight on a clean driveway. The warmer the conditions the quicker curls will straighten out and lay flat. Use wide push broom, push air out from center and work your way out (side to side and length to length) Repeat if necessary. Place on garage floor when desired and repeat broom out.
Unroll option 2: If you wish to unroll product directly on the garage floor, sweep garage floor clean of debris and unroll Garage Floor Protector. For best results, start unrolling process at the garage entrance; finishing at the back of the garage. Note: In cool to cold conditions it may take 72+ hours for most curl marks to lay flat depending on the temperature. Be sure to push out air with broom (It is OK to park your car on it during this time). - Allow mat to relax and lay flat. For custom fit, allow product to relax in place before trimming around edges and corners.
Note: If product is used under extreme temperature conditions, such as direct sunlight or unheated garages, the product may expand or
contract as much as 2% after laying flat. For custom fit, always allow product to relax before trimming around edges and corners.
- Trim edges with sharp scissors or utility knife.
- Taping around edges is not necessary. This product can expand or contract up to 2% with temperature changes. It is best if the product is allowed to 'float' freely on the floor. If you choose to tape the seam between two floor protectors, we recommend using indoor-outdoor carpet tape.
CAUTION—SAFETY WARNING: Any floor surface can become slippery in the presence of moisture and debris. Proper care and cleaning of vinyl flooring will reduce the likelihood of slips and falls. Wipe up any oil, chemicals, or other fluids that may drip or leak from vehicle to prevent hazardous, slippery conditions.
