Surface Preparation

Condition cove base and CB-10 construction adhesive to room temperature for 24 hours prior to installation. Do not apply at temperatures below 60° F. Lay cove base strip flat for at least 24 hours prior to installation. Make sure that surface is clean, dry and structurally sound. Remove all loose paint, dust, dirt, grease or any foreign material before applying cove base construction adhesive. New plaster, concrete or cement surfaces must be fully cured before applying this construction adhesive.

Cartridge Application

Apply 1/4" zig-zag beads of construction adhesive 4" apart to cover cove base or stair tread. Be sure 60% of cove base or stair tread is covered with construction adhesive. Press or roll cove base or stair tread firmly into place. If bonding cove base to a curved or irregular surface, some bracing may be needed until construction adhesive is set. Do not stretch cove base.

Trowel Application

Spread construction adhesive onto wall or stair surface or to back of cove base or stair treads with a 1/8" V-notched trowel which has notches 1/8" apart, or spread a thin layer of adhesive 1/16" thick to the back of the cove base or stair tread with a putty knife. Trowel an area that can be covered within 15 minutes, before this construction adhesive begins to set.

Cleanup

If the construction adhesive is wet, use soapy water. If the construction adhesive has dried, use mineral spirits.
