Concrete Moisture Control System - 7000 Installation Tips
Engineered Floor Repair Kit Installation Instructions
PROBLEMS OCCUR ON JOBS WHERE:
• The flooring adhesive fails to have full contact with the flooring, which results in gaps between the flooring and the subfloor.
• Subfloors are not leveled properly before installation.
• Old adhesives crystallize and release from subfloor due to natural wood movement.
• Wrong spread rate of adhesive, resulting in release of wood from subfloor.
• Warping of wood flooring due to water damage or (out of box) warped product.
BENEFITS OF DRITAC PROFESSIONAL WOOD FLOOR REPAIR SYSTEM
• Functional and easy to use for both the professional flooring installer and the “do it yourselfer”.
• Hollow spot or void beneath the flooring is completely filled with the repair adhesive, truly repairing the problem! (Epoxy repair kits only tack down a small section of the problem area.)
• Drill bit and applicator tips are much smaller in diameter than conventional repair kits, creating a smaller hole which is easily hidden with wood putty.
• No need to weigh down the repaired area.
• Cost per repair is a fraction of the cost of epoxy.
• Floor can be walked on immediately after the repair. No set up time is required!
Instructions
• Locate loose area(s) or hollow spot(s) in the wood and outline with blue releasable tape.
• Prepare all hollow areas at the same time. Doing all repairs in a short time period will prevent the syringe from clogging.
• Stir adhesive before using.
• Loading the Syringe: (two options)
1. Pour directly from bottle into syringe.
or
2. Pour DriTac Repair Adhesive into an open container. Place the applicator tip of syringe into an open container and draw the adhesive up into syringe.
NOTE: Adhesive is thin - It will drip without pressure being applied to the syringe.
• Drill hole(s) with a 3/32” drill bit, (provided in this system), in the area outlined by the blue tape. There may be a need for more than one hole per loose area depending upon size. For larger areas, at least two holes are recommended. Drill one hole at one side of the hollow area and a second hole at the other side.
• Place the applicator tip into the hole and inject adhesive until you feel back pressure. If two holes were drilled, inject adhesive until it comes out the other hole. There may be a need to inject adhesive into the second hole to spread the repair adhesive to the entire area.
• The hollow spot should now be filled in completely. Do not weigh down the repaired area, this allows the adhesive to seek its level.
• Once the void is completely filled use the dowels provided as a plug for the hole(s) drilled. This will keep the adhesive securely under the floor. The dowels are slightly oversized and need to be tapered with a knife or sandpaper to properly fill the hole. Tap the dowel into the hole and cut it off even with the floor. Use the dowel punch provided in this system to lower the dowel below the surface of the flooring.
• Putty the hole with wood filler that blends with the floor color.
• Clean up any adhesive residue with a damp cloth. Dry adhesive can be removed with mineral spirits or safety solvent. Clean out syringe and applicator tip so that it can be reused.
Do not use DriTac Wood Floor Repair System to repair solid wood flooring.
NOTE: DriTac Wood Floor Repair Kit can be used with most glue down engineered wood floors, as long as the adhesive is completely cured. If the original adhesive used for installation was not DriTac 6200, test a sample area for compatibility. Do not use DriTac Wood Floor Repair System to repair solid wood flooring.
CAUTION: If there is a large amount of repair adhesive used to fill a hollow spot, some cupping of the flooring may occur. This cupping will dissipate within several days.

DriTac Adhesive Group manufactures premium wood and cork flooring adhesives and flooring-related products for installers, contractors and architects. DriTac 6200 is the nation's leading waterbased wood flooring adhesive with over 1½ million square feet of flooring installed monthly. DriTac 7500 Urethane is a low odor, solvent-free urethane adhesive that is highly moisture resistant and suitable for solid wood flooring.
DriTac Adhesive Group has expanded its product line through the years with a number of new and innovative products. These include DriTac Professional Wood Floor Repair Kit, the quick and easy way to repair hollow spots and loose areas in wood floors; DriTac Urethane Adhesive Remover, which removes wet or uncured urethane adhesive from wood flooring surfaces; and its latest product, DriTac Concrete Moisture Emission Sealer, which prevents moisture in concrete subfloors from affecting wood flooring and wood flooring adhesives.
A division of Basic Adhesives, Inc. since 1986, DriTac Flooring Adhesives was originally established in 1956 in New York City. Over the years, DriTac has steadily increased its market presence as more and more flooring professionals recommend or specify DriTac products for their requirements.
At the time of DriTac's inception, the company's signature product was DriTac 6200, a special waterbased wood flooring adhesive. In the early years, DriTac's reputation grew in the New York area by word of mouth; it remained virtually unknown elsewhere. Back in those days, most of the country was using solvent-based adhesives to install wood flooring. DriTac 6200 was unique in that it achieved a superior ultimate bond strength with a non-toxic, waterbased formula. When the Clean Air Act of 1990 was enacted, adhesive manufacturers were required to eliminate chlorinated solvents from their products. DriTac 6200 was recognized as the adhesive of choice, as it had always been V.O.C. compliant from the beginning. DriTac was the right product at the right time!
DriTac continually endeavors to supply the flooring industry with the highest quality products. DriTac products are sold through a network of authorized flooring distributors across the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Our revolutionary " Quiet Walk ® " laminate floor underlayment smoothes out little sub floor imperfections while quieting impact sound and floor to ceiling noise. Not only does it dampen ambient sound in the room it's installed in, but it also inhibits sound from traveling into the room below. Although it is promoted as an upgrade underlayment taking the place of poly foam, it doesn't carry a heavy upgrade price when compared to cork or rubber. On the other hand, in recent head-to-head Sound Transmission Loss tests, Quiet Walk ® outperformed both cork and rubber in the majority of test band frequencies. Certified field sound tests were performed on an installation over a standard concrete sub floor, and received an FIIC score of "60".
New Features • Increased absorbency & dissipation of moisture with added Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) that enhances moisture carrying capacity • Increased moisture barrier strength
Sound Absorption • QuietWalk® filaments are randomly air-laid creating a capillary affect to cushion the floor, absorb sound, and help make laminate floors sound more like real wood. • Sound Transmission Class (STC) = 54 • Impact Insulation Class (IIC) = 58 • Field Impact Insulation Class (F-IIC) = 60
Moisture Protection • When installed properly, QuietWalk® can wick sub-floor or incidental perimeter moisture and disperse it through the pad. • Moderate amounts of moisture will eventually dissipate over time by perimeter or sub-floor evaporation, provided the source of water such as a leak is stopped. **See below link for video moisture tests
Smoothes out minor sub-floor imperfections • QuietWalk® is firm enough (density=13.3lbs/ft^3; compression resistance @ 25%=9.5psi) to support the overlaying floor, but flexible enough to form around sub-floor surface roughness that may otherwise cause laminate panels to “rock” or lay unevenly.
Adds insulation value • QuietWalk®will add an R-Value of .50 to the floor system.
Economical • QuietWalk® is ideally priced as a quality upgrade from polyethylene or polystyrene film and is less than 1/2 the cost of either cork or rubber underlayment with similar sound numbers.
Made from recycled materials • QuietWalk® is a “green” product, constructed (over 80%) with postindustrial/pre-consumer fibers, materials that may otherwise have been land filled.
Anti-Microbial Properties • Synthetic fibers by their composition do not support the growth of bacteria and fungus. • The high temperature manufacturing process used to produce QuietWalk® will eliminate live organisms. • We incorporate an EPA registered anti-microbial in QuietWalk® to control mold or bacteria on the treated product.
In geographic areas where concrete slabs are subject to excessive moisture, a calcium chloride test is required. Vapor emission readings in excess of 3 lbs. per 1,000 square feet in 24 hours will require additional protections such as a concrete sealant or poly-ethylene sheeting.
NOTE: All rolls of QuietWalk®100’s are cut to a minimum of 100 square feet. The average thickness of QuietWalk® is .125 of an inch. The average weight of a 100 ft. roll is 13.8 lbs. All rolls ofQuietWalk®360’s are cut to a minimum of 360 square feet. The average thickness of QuietWalk® is .125 of an inch. The average weight of a 360 ft. roll is 50 lbs. Due to the nature of our manufacturing process and the use of recycled materials, the pad thickness may vary .02 of an inch plus-or-minus. Actual weight of each roll may also vary 2 lbs., plus-or-minus. While it may appear that one roll is slightly larger than another, we guarantee this slight variance DOES NOT affect the coverage area nor the sound absorption benefits of the product.
QuietWalk 3 in 1 Underlay
Floating Wood and Laminate Flooring Underlayment
Quiet Walk™ underlayment, although it was originally created specifically for laminate flooring, it now is also used under some nail-down and floating hardwood products.
Our revolutionary "Quiet Walk™" laminate floor underlayment smoothes out little subfloor imperfections while quieting impact sound and floor to ceiling noise. Not only does it dampen ambient sound in the room it's installed in, but it also inhibits sound from traveling into the room below. Although it is promoted as an upgrade underlayment taking the place of poly foam, it doesn't carry a heavy upgrade price when compared to cork or rubber. On the other hand, in recent head-to-head Sound Transmission Loss tests, Quiet Walk™ outperformed both cork and rubber in the majority of test band frequencies. Certified field sound tests were performed on an installation over a standard concrete subfloor, and received an FIIC score of "60".
In addition to it's sound deadening benefits, the absorbing action of the synthetic fibers together with the attached vapor barrier provides superior moisture protection that is backed by a Limited Lifetime warranty. Another benefit is the increase in R-value to help keep floors warm in the winter, and cool in the summer.
Quiet Walk™ is available in 100 square foot do-it-yourself size rolls.
