We\u2019ve compiled a list of steps below to help when applying our popular and durable temporary floor protection board, <a href=\"https:\/\/trimaco.com\/products\/heavy-duty-surface-protection\/lightweight-surface-protection-x-board\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">X\u2022Board<\/a>. <\/p>\n<h2>What is X\u2022Board?<\/h2>\n<p>X\u2022Board Paint + Remodel is an easy-to-use temporary surface protection that lays flat when rolled out. This breathable painter board allows floors to continue the curing process while you work and our innovative liquid repellent Spill Block\u00ae technology ensures no paint spills, mud or water will get through to your surface and cause any damage. X\u2022Board will last for the endurance of the job!<\/p>\n<h3>How to apply:<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>First, input the square footage of the area you\u2019re protecting into our <a href=\"https:\/\/trimaco.com\/products\/heavy-duty-surface-protection\/lightweight-surface-protection-x-board\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">jobsite calculator<\/a> to determine how much product you\u2019ll need for easy installation.<\/li>\n<li>After your surface protector product is purchased, roll out the X-Board and cut with a knife or box cutter (product lays flat, so no need to leave time for it to uncurl).<\/li>\n<li>Make sure to use the product with logo up to ensure no risk of ink transfer to flooring.<\/li>\n<li>Overlap X\u2022Board seams by \u00bc inch to prevent \u201ctenting\u201d and tape together using our seam tape. <\/li>\n<li>Before taping X\u2022Board to the floor, spot test with tapes to see which tape works best for your surface. Do this in an area that is unseen or out of the way, such as a closet. We suggest our <a href=\"https:\/\/trimaco.com\/products\/heavy-duty-tapes\/90-day-floorsmart-tape\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">90-day Floor Tape<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/trimaco.com\/products\/masking-tapes\/bluedge-painting-tape\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">blue painters tape<\/a> to use directly on surfaces. Do not use where X\u2022Board cannot be firmly secured to the surface! <\/li>\n<li>Finally, tape X\u2022Board down to your carpet, tile or hardwood floors to protect from debris and get to work!\n<li>When finished with the job, roll up and reuse if there\u2019s minimal wear or recycle! <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Remember to make sure you consult with your flooring and\/or finish manufacturer to determine if X\u2022Board is suitable surface protection board to use, prior to curing.
