Questions & Answers
5 questions

If I have 200 sq feet to tile how many containers of the #007 glue do I need?

One gallon of TAVY Thin-Skin #007 Glue along with TAVY Thin-Skin Roll will cover 100 square feet.


You would need 2 gallons and 2 rolls of TAVY Thin-Skin.

I removed linoleum from concrete bathroom floor. There is a thin layer of linoleum glue left on the concrete floor. It is very thin (like a paint) and difficult to remove. Can the first "primer" coat of Tavy Thin-skin Glue be applied directly over the linoleum glue remaining or do I need to remove or rough up the glue residue prior to putting the first coat of Tavy Thin-skin on it?

No, scarifying the existing surface before use is not necessary. The only surface preparation required is to have a clean surface that is free from oil, water, wax or dust.

Can floor leveler be used over thin skin?

Yes, as the The TAVY Thin-Skin Two Part Underlayment System was developed to provide an underlayment for tile that could be installed over any surface

I am highly allergic to epoxy glue, is this an epoxy product?

This is water based but does contain some epoxy per the manufacturer. We would recommend staying away from this product if you are highly allergic to epoxy glues.

Some of the tavy glue got on the thin skin when I was applying to the floor. I cleaned off the glue, but it’s a little sticky.. will this mess up my skin coat of mortar and not allow it to adhere to the thin skin?

No, this will not mess it up as your thinset will still adhere to the surface.
