Multi-purpose non-toxic tile and flooring adhesive
Cold Weather Alert
This product may not perform properly if applied below the required temperature. Please check installation instructions on our website. Because this is a water-based product, it may freeze during shipping. For that reason we will not ship over a weekend if temperatures dip below 32 degrees F. If you want us to ship anyway, it will be at your own risk. Please call to arrange with a GBS eco-advisor. 888.727.2101AFM SafeCoat 3-in-1 Adhesive is a low-odor, non-toxic, formaldehyde-free water-based adhesive. Use it indoors for adhering small/lightweight wall tiles (less than 8" x 8") made of ceramic, also floor tiles made of ceramic, parquet, and slate, and for any carpet application (except wool) where a typical carpet adhesive would be used. NOT for use on porcelain tile.
This product is not designed for hardwood, bamboo, wool carpet, vinyl, or marmoleum/linoleum flooring. For that we recommend Taylor Resolute Resilient Moisture Barrier Adhesive, or Forbo Sustain 1195.
NOTE: 3-in-1 often appears like jello in consistency. This is normal; it has no solvents to keep it smooth in the can. Once troweled, however, it will spread smoothly. If the contents are a little stiff, simply use a paint mixer on a drill to mix the contents of the can.
Why We Like It
This product is easy to work with on many different projects around the home or office. It dries quickly and adheres very well without an offensive odor. Although it's designed for walls, we've used it to glue all kinds of objects. For indoor use only.
