    Been asked to price fitting some bouncle the customer already has. I went to have a look the other day & its new stuff but it doesn't have the rubber backing on it ?
    Has any one fitted naturals with out backing before ?
    I'm concerned the glue will come through if I attempt to sick it ?
    It's 3rooms flat lay & 2 stair cases.

    I did some of that the other day, the customer was told by the manufacturers (kersaint cobb) to lay it with normally underlay an gripper, so that's what I did. It looked ok. Even though I think it needs to be glued. But the only problem is if you use glue an you're not meant to you haven't got a leg to stand on if things go wrong..

    The customer is an interior designer & want it fitted in her own house she doesn't even know where she got it from & also it needs joined.
    I want to stick it but if the glue comes through its fooked ?

    Anyone else got any ideas please ?

    Smaller notched trowel say A2 and let the F3 almost go off. As long as you have no big blobs of adhesive you will be fine.
