Carrara Marble 4 MIL 12 in. W x 24 in. L Peel and Stick Waterproof Vinyl Tile Flooring (20 sqft/case)

Hello Dw54 - thanks for the questions. The TrafficMaster Carrara Marble has a slight texture to the tiles and has a "low gloss" sheen to them. We would recommend visiting your local Home Depot to see them in person. Thank You -

Hi Radiator and thank you for your inquiry. The best subfloor is a smooth APA underlayment grade of plywood with the smooth surface up. Panels should be APA underlayment grade, sanded face, properly installed and secured 1/8 in. gap around the perimeter of the room. DO NOT install over plywood that has been painted or contains any contaminants, grease, oil, solvents or stains. Remove all sealers, grease, oil, adhesive residue, dirt, paint, or other foreign material using a TSP (Trisodium Phosphate) Cleaner. Crawl spaces should be properly ventilated and have proper moisture barrier between the substrate and the subfloor. Application of a Latex-based Primer applied over wood using a Short Nap Paint Roller prior to installation is recommended. Please follow the Primer manufacturer’s directions for proper application. Thank you.

Hi Flor and thank you for your inquiry. Could you please elaborate on your question to help us better understand? Thank you.

Thank you for your recent inquiry with The Home Depot. It is not recommended to be installed on a wall due to the installation requirements for underlayment. Any installation contrary to manufacturers instructions, will void the warranty. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future.

Hello Nick and thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, the TrafficMaster Peel and Stick Vinyl Tile can only be installed on the floor, and not recommended for installation on vertical surfaces. The adhesive is designed to adhere to two types of subfloors - 1.) Properly prepared concrete and/or 2.) Underlayment grade plywood. However, we do manufacture another product for the Home Depot called "Dura Decor," which is warranted for wall applications. It is a special order, and can be found only on the Home Depot website at www.homedepot.com. Thanks again.

Hello KIRK and thanks for your question. The run number on the end of the carton indicates the date/time the product was produced. So It's always important when you install the flooring in the same room that the run numbers on each carton should match as there may be a slight difference in sheen throughout the floor if they are different. As for the arrows on the bottom of each tile, they should always be pointed one way or the other. If they are diagonal, they we suggest returning the carton to The Home Depot for a return or exchange. Hope that helps answer your question. Thanks again for choosing TrafficMaster Peel and Stick Vinyl Tile Flooring.

Hello PandaExpress and thanks for your question. We would suggest using isopropyl alcohol to remove any type of adhesive residue that is left on top of an existing vinyl floor as it is gentile enough to not damage the surface. Hope this helps. Thanks again and we wish you all the best.

Hello Kelly and thanks for your question. In order to get proper adhesion and stay within warranty specs, this product can only be installed on two types of subfloor - 1.) Properly prepared concrete, or 2.) Underlayment grade flooring plywood. Before installing the TrafficMaster Peel and Stick Vinyl Tile, the subfloor should be properly prepped by scraping any debris from the floor and vacuuming with a HEPA filtered vacuum. Then apply a flooring primer before installation, and roll afterwards with a flooring roller. It is always recommended to follow the Installation Instructions (which can be found in each carton, or on the product page of The Home Depot website) prior to installation. Thanks again and we wish you all the best with your flooring project.

Follow instructions to the letter, & roll after setting
