Question 33

I am removing old vinyl tile flooring from the 1980's that was glued down with a black adhesive that has an incredibly strong chemical odor. It doesn't contain asbestos, we had it tested. The subfloor is plywood. The smell is definitely coming from the adhesive because there is no smell at all until the flooring comes up. Can we apply the Hard Seal over the adhesive that's stuck to the subfloor to encapsulate the chemical off-gassing before installing the new wood floor? The last thing I want is for some horrible chemical reaction between this product and the adhesive. (Unfortunately we do have to remove the vinyl flooring rather than lay the new wood flooring over it because it's so uneven.) View answer

Question 34

Hi. My contractor used Great Stuff Gap and Cracks spray foam to seal cracks throughout our under-construction home. Due to asthma, allergies, and general sensitivity to chemicals and smells, I had specifically requested no high VOC materials, poly-isocyanates, polyurethane, etc. -- all of which are in this product. They used the foam where the subfloor meets the wall, around plumbing penetrations, and around electrical boxes. Removing the spray foam is dangerous and maybe impossible. Can I seal the foam to prevent a lifetime of off-gassing? Would Hard Seal work for that purpose? Or is there some other approach? Thanks! View answer

Question 35

Also, does it immediately stop off gassing once dry? View answer
