Marine & Boat Adhesive™

1167 is a solvent-free, latex-resin emulsion adhesive specifically designed for the installation of most marine carpets. 1167 offers excellent resistance to water when fully dry and cured. 1167 is compatible with most all carpet backings and felt back sheet goods. 1167 is non-flammable, freeze-thaw stable and is protected by the CleanGuard® two-stage antimicrobial. CleanGuard® is a specifically formulated broad-spectrum, anti-microbial agent that protects the 1167 from microorganisms, such as mold or mildew, in both the wet and dry state.

• The carpet pile is 100% BCF Olefin, UV-treated.
• Our Backing is a high-grade marine rubber.
• Also included: 1 gal. of nonflammable marine carpet glue, pushpins, and kraft paper (rolled under the carpet) to assist with patterning.

Installation Recommendations:
1. Sub-floor surface must be sound, smooth and free of loose paint, varnish, curing agents, parting compounds, oil grease,
wax or any other foreign agents or contaminates that could affect the adhesive and bond strength.
2. Minimum environmental conditions are 65º-95ºF for both the floor covering and adhesive and 35-65% relative humidity
for not less than 48 hours before installation. Typical cure time 24-48 hours, depending on temperature and relative
humidity.
3. Spread the adhesive using the specified trowel- carpet – 1/8 x 1/8 x 1/8 V-notch, 12 yds/gallon; sheet goods 1/16 x 1/16
x 1/6 V-notch, 20 yds/gallon. Allow the adhesive to tack properly (10-15 minutes) maintaining the proper trowel notch
throughout the entire installation.
4. Lay floor covering into the adhesive so as to minimize air bubbles and wrinkles. Check a small area for 100 percent
transfer. Roll the floorcovering in both north-south and east-west directions.
5. Keep the installation dry and at room temperature while curing. Exposure to water or rain will wash away the uncured
adhesive.
6. Clean up tools or adhesive spills with water while wet, use safety solvent when dry
