Apply adhesive to one of the surfaces in either a continuous or spot bead. Adhere materials within 15 minutes. Press surfaces firmly together with a slight twisting motion. Certain large applications may require additional bracing until adhesive has dried. Note: For subfloors, apply adhesive to joists for one sheet at a time. Nail or screw each sheet as recommended by the American Plywood Association.
