In Reply to: Bubbles under linoleum posted by Cathy on July 16, 19100 at 13:52:20:
: We just laid down sheet lino in our kitchen last night, and have found a rather large bubble (two actually) under it. Adhesive was applied to the entire concrete floor under the lino. We rolled it, apparently not enough to get all the bubbles. Any ideas how best to get the air out from under it now? Considering putting a small cut in it with a razor, injecting a little more glue under, and rolling the air out again. Will this work?
If what you installed last nite is vinyl you may already see the bubbles going away. However, if after a few days they are still there, rather then slicing with a razor blade use a large hypodermic needle since the hole it leavesm will be less noticable. Also be sure to apply a drop of seam sealer to the cut left by the needle.
Good luck
