Installers and contractors love Traction because it makes their job much easier and faster. It can be applied while standing, reducing fatigue and the need for protective padding. An installation done with Traction is much more forgiving than one done with glue. If a plank isn’t placed in the right position, it can easily be lifted and repositioned. The time saved by using Traction can be spent making sure the job is done perfectly.

Owners and property managers love Traction because it reduces costs, damage, and labor time that could be spent elsewhere. Traction can save you a lot of money in the long run. When Traction is in use, repairs can cost little to nothing at all. Our InstaGrip flooring is built for durability, but in the unlikely event that a flooring plank is damaged, you can replace it in seconds and by hand with Traction. If it’s time for a new flooring design, replacement is a breeze. The coating’s functionality is maintained while simultaneously laterally gripping your flooring planks tightly, preventing horizontal movement.

Description

Traction firmly stops the horizontal movement of LooseLay vinyl flooring without permanently locking the planks down to the subfloor, and it performs incredibly in both residential and light commercial installations.

Traction is easily applied to a subfloor using a ⅜” short nap paint roller in one or two coats. Traction is NOT an adhesive. It applies much faster than an adhesive and has less odor overall. Once Traction has cured, our LooseLay InstaGrip flooring can be installed, and planks can be easily replaced with no damage to the flooring or subfloor. If the time comes to reapply, Traction doesn’t need to be removed, and the new coat can be applied over the previous coat. It couldn’t be easier. Traction provides pH blocking and protection from alkali attack, protects flooring from subfloor moisture vapor up to 90% RH, and is compatible with radiant floor heating systems.
