What glue to use under lino flooring?

[keithknott]

Hi there,

I have bought lino from bunnings . What glue , if any, can be used so as not to dissolve or damage the under surface of the lino. It is being laid over existing tiles , some of which are cracked.  I have been told that double sided sticking tape can be used but i am not sure about that. 

my other thoughts are quickgrip or silicone sealant that is used around baths might be ok. Your thoughts

Hello @keithknott 

Thank you for sharing that additional information about your lino. It's recommended to use Selleys 350g Kwik Grip Spray Contact Adhesive. Please keep in mind that using this adhesive will anchor the lino to the tile and it will not be easy to remove in the future.

If you are after a moderate installation of the lino, you can use Moroday 40mm x 10m Grey Double-Sided Body Mounting Tape. This will provide a good anchor for the lino and if you need to remove it, pulling it from the corners will not damage the tiles.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
