2023-11-27

Floor decals are a key tool in organizing a safe and efficient industrial space. Their correct application is essential to maximize their durability and functionality. Here's a short guide to help you properly install Tagatic floor decals from the BASIC, PRO, and HEAVY DUTY series.
Surface Preparation
- Surface Selection: Stickers will work best on floor panels, ceramic tiles, marble, wooden parquets, smooth concrete screeds and high-quality smooth PVC floor coverings.
- Cleaning: Ensure the surface is smooth and free from moving parts. For oily stains, use rubbing alcohol or a mild solvent. Then clean with a mild detergent (without enzymes) and rinse thoroughly with water.
- Drying: The surface must be completely dry before application.
- Cleaning Range: The cleaned area should be larger than the sticker to prevent contact with the dirty floor.
Stickers App
- Positioning: Expose a small amount of adhesive (e.g., a corner) and place the sticker in the desired location. Avoid touching the adhesive.
- Installation: Once the sticker is in place, slowly peel off the remaining backing paper, pushing out any air trapped beneath the sticker. Use a squeegee or clean cloth to press down.
- Press: Press everything down thoroughly, paying particular attention to the edges and corners.
- Curing Time: If possible, leave the sticker for 24 hours without washing or heavy vehicle traffic.
Exploitation
- Traffic Types: HEAVY DUTY stickers are suitable for normal pedestrian traffic and light motor vehicle traffic.
- Cleaning: Use mild soap-based cleansers.
- Slippery Warning: Wet decals may be slippery. Foot traffic resumes only after they are completely dry.
- Caution: Avoid contact with heavy and sharp objects that may damage the stickers.
Summary
Following these steps will ensure long-lasting and effective use floor decals in your facility. Below, you'll find a short, pictorial guide that walks you through the entire application process, step by step. Good luck!
