EARTH DAY FLASH SALE 2026 Q&A
Activity timeframe
In my upcoming home re-roofing job, my roofer is going to be sealing any soffits or vents that are up on my roof while it is re-tiled.I am looking to use a ceramic lightweight S tile which will have an underlayment below the tile. My roof job will entail sealing the installation of these vents onto the roof, and then I would have the underlayment abut or overlap slightly. Because of my sensitivities so many adhesives and coatings, and concerned about off-gassing of these materials into my air circulation system through these openings , what do you think may be best sealing product for my job ? I would like to use AFM Safecoat Dynoflex textured natural ? View answer

What kind of adhesives would stick to this? I see that you can use thinset and tile over, but we are using a stone veneer product for our shower walls and need to glue it up. A two part epoxy adhesive is what is recommended by the manufacturer of the veneer. Would an epoxy based adhesive adhere to this product? View answer

I know you said this isn't for area rugs, but I have an area rug and it smells awful of chemicals. Would it really hurt to use this on that? And if these products are NOT designed for area rugs, the instructions regarding wrapping the rug in rags while drying makes no sense. I'm desperate and need the carpet sealed before 2/27/24.What can I do if not this? View answer

I installed new carpet two years ago, but I could not stand the new carpet smell. Like a fool, I looked up on the internet what would reduce the smell and found out about baking soda. I sprinkled baking soda on the carpet and let it sit for 24 hours. The smell is pretty much gone. But since then I have not been able to get rid of the baking soda in the carpet. It gives me a sore throat and nose bleeds because every time I vacuum the small baking soda particles go back into the air and dries it out. No matter how many times I vacuum or carpet clean I can't get all the baking soda out of the carpet. Will this product seal the the baking soda in the carpet, so there is not an issue with fine dust in the air anymore? View answer

Hi there. The synthetic carpet in the house we recently purchased was apparently fitted in 2015. The info provided about AFM's Carpet Seal suggests that you might only need to use this is the carpet is under 4 years old. Is this true? And is this because carpet backing has typically stopped off gassing after 4 years? If I don't need to use the Carpet Seal, would you still recommend using AFM's Carpet Lock Out to prevent off gassing of the fibers? If so, does this product also need to be re-applied on a yearly basis and how long do the fibers typically continue to offgas? View answer

Hi, I have just moved into a rental property that has had new carpet and underlay installed about 2 weeks ago. I have MCS and don't think either carpet or underlay is low VOC. Can I treat just the carpet with this system or will I need to also treat the underlay? Ideally, I wouldn't have to remove the carpet and can fix the problem by sealing just the carpet itself.

We moved into a house with an old carpet and we know for a fact the prior owners used lots of chemicals on their lawn. They left a garage full of them. Is this something we can use to clean and "encapsulate" any chemicals left in the carpet or is the only way to replace the whole carpet? Thank you! View answer

How long after doing the three-step system will I know how much of the odor is blocked? After step 3 has dried will I immediately know if it worked well enough? We bought a new house with a strong new carpet smell. If sealing doesn't remove enough of the smell we will replace the flooring. View answer

I discovered when I used Bon Ami (calcium carbonate) on my Marmoleum that I was able to get some long-standing stains off of the floor. I have faithfully used the Marmoleum cleaner and finish for the last five years, but I think I can restore some bad staining with Bon Ami. If I do that, and then apply finish after I'm done, will it hurt the floor? View answer

I was wondering how would this product react on brand new western cedar walls and ceiling? Would the product stop the wood from discoloration from aging? Cedar in particular changes color dramatically with time so I was wondering how would a white color monocoat finish look on cedar after a 1-5 years? View answer

I am extremely chemical sensitive so I am unable to use any stains or finishes with VOCs. I need to redo my hardwood floors as well as trim. Your Monocoat sounds like a godsend for me. My problem is, my wife likes at least a semi-gloss shine. Is there any way to use the Monocoat and the Universal Maintenance Oil to get a higher shine? I told her about the satin but she doesn't think that will be enough. View answer

How do you think this a wool rug will do with high humidity? Would it feel damp? Smell like sheep? :) Might the wool's high absorption rate lead to mold in the backing? The ambient humidity where I live is 70 - 80% but it's cool enough for the windows to be open. Thank you. View answer
