What happens here

After the adhesive has been applied and allowed to reach the appropriate tackiness, the worker proceeds to lay the grey-toned vinyl planks onto the prepared surface. Each plank is carefully positioned, aligning its edges tightly against the previous planks or the wall, ensuring a snug fit. The planks are then pressed firmly into the adhesive to ensure a strong, uniform bond and to eliminate any trapped air. The installation progresses row by row across the room, typically starting from a designated reference line or wall. For cutting planks to fit at the edges or around obstacles, a utility knife and a straight edge are used to make precise cuts.

Goal: Securely place and adhere vinyl planks to the subfloor
