We have several concerns with this application: 1) rolling/buckling due to dragging of "loads" (moving/scooting of chairs with people in them). If unsecured with an adhesive, rolling/buckling could cause cracking of the surface layer over time. 2) This regular movement could affect the underlying "new wood floor" surface in unforeseeable ways. Staining, or most likely, abrasion to the floor underneath, is likely to occur 3) this product has no edge protection and the slightest kick would result in a damaged edge. Without adhesive, the corners of the Marmoleum could also begin to curl and become damaged. 4) This application falls outside the installation guidelines for this product, and therefore would not be warranted. For any one of these reasons, we ask that you don't try this at home. We offer area rugs that might be a better solution.
