    Just fitted some la mark dance floor vinyl for a ballet room, just wondered if you guys have came across this before? It's a 6mm vinyl and looks like its made by Tarkett. You butt the edges and use a single sided tape over the top, but looked crap. Just wondered if it could have been welded, hot or cold? image.jpg

    The company who supplied it said tape the underside with their own tape, and then use a single sided tape on top to protect the edges.

    If its Harlequin (sp) it can be welded but its quite tricky because of how soft the underneath of the sheet is as this causes the top layer to dip when you run a half-moon down the weld, and it didnt matter how long you let the weld cool either, it would still dip. We had to trim as much as we could off with the half-moon then use a flat exacto blade with quite a thick straight-edge and run it down the joints then flash the lot over with the weld nozzle. This was before anyone had Mozart trimmers though so I imagine they would probably do the job a lot better than an old spatula could

    Don't think it's harlequin as its a different spec than what the harlequin is stated as. But thanks anyway.
