NOTE: DIVE
Cincinnati, Inc. is neither the
manufacturer nor the installer of
Rough-Tex Surface. DIVE Cincinnati
assumes no liability for incorrect
sizing, style, color or any other
errors that may be made by the person
or entity ordering, installing or
otherwise using this material. Please
double-check your measurements prior
to placing your order.
Rough-Tex was not originally manufactured
for use as a diving platform surface.
It has been, however, successfully
used for many years as an excellent
non-skid surface on many diving
platforms (both indoors and outdoors)
around the world. Rough-Tex is less
expensive than other non-skid diving
platform surfaces on the market
today. Use of Rough-tex over other
products is simply a matter of personal
preference.
DIVE Cincinnati, Inc. makes
the following recommendations to
help make for successful installation
and use of your Rough-Tex Surface:
-
Prior to placing
your actual order, request samples
of the Rough-Tex material from
DIVE Cincinnati and perform a
test installation using your chosen
adhesive.
-
Hire a reputable
and competent flooring contractor
to install the Rough-Tex surface.
-
The surface onto
which you will attach the Rough-Tex
material should be clean and be
without paint of any kind.
-
If attaching to
concrete, the concrete should
contain no curing compounds (water
cured only). If curing compounds
have been used, the surface must
be thoroughly cleaned and scarified
(Rough-grinding) prior to installation.
-
Use good contact
cement such as 3M 1300 or 3M 1357
or Mondo’s PU 100 2-part
polyurethane adhesive. Closely
follow all manufacturers instructions
for proper use of their respective
adhesive products.
-
Use weights to
hold down the edges of the Rough-Tex
after installation until adhesive
is dry.
-
Use an edge-sealing
compound to seal the edges of
the Rough-Tex.
-
Allow adhesive
to thoroughly dry prior to any
use or activity.
