Thank you for your feedback. The Wax Paper Underlayment is recommended for the installation of hardwood and engineered nail-down flooring. It is ideal for reducing squeaks in wood floors. This product is used as a barrier between a wood subfloor and new floor on above grade installations. It also helps boards slide into place with ease. All the best with your project.

The product is thin and slippery. It did the job, but I wish it was thicker and more durable.

Thank you for your feedback. Roberts 30 lb. Waxed Paper Roll is recommended for the installation of hardwood and engineered nail-down flooring. The wax paper provides a professional grade thickness and performance to help ease the installation and reduce squeaks in wood floors. The wax paper is simply placed between the subfloor and the wood flooring on above grade installations.
Use between wood floors and subfloors to ease installation and minimize squeaks. QEP
    Home Depot, thank you so much for this opportunity to rate your wax paper. It’s very papery and waxy. You did it. 10 points to Slitherin.

    I ordered this to use as a release barrier while mounting laminate with contact cement. I needed something akin to waxed paper, but wider. This did the trick. I was able to laminate a door without having to piece together.

    Worked great, attached with masking tape!
    It worked very well for me, with engineered hardwood going on top. Attaching it to my subfloor, I found the best way was to use masking tape, like ScotchBlue #2093 Sharp Lines Painter's Tape. The tape is very thin, and it stuck to the wax paper and plywood subfloor just fine. First, I tried stapling, but the staples tore through the paper. A couple things I liked about the wax paper, was that it made it easy to slide the hardwood into place, and any loose dirt or sawdust was easily seen to be wiped off.

        This waxed paper underlayment is very thin an tears extremely easy. It has to be taped down to stay in place and you must be careful walking on it or it will tear. It needs to be a little thicker and/or sturdier in my opinion.

            No matter how careful you are this paper is too thin. It tears easily. Pick a thicker product for flooring underlayment.
