Titebond Tongue & Groove Flooring Glue can be installed using the continuous bead method. When using this method, a water-resistant joint is created. Follow the flooring manufacturers’ directions for proper positioning of the adhesive bead. Some manufacturers prefer gluing the top of the tongue and others prefer gluing of the groove. Titebond Tongue & Groove Flooring Glue is the professional installer’s choice for either method.
