Why these thresholds
Installing within 5°F of the dew point causes amine blush / carbamation — a cloudy, greasy, hazed floor. The slab surface temp, not the air, is what counts.
- • Surface temp must stay 5°F above the dew point through application and cure (ASTM D3276 / ISO 8502-42).
- • Air + surface in the 50–86°F band (low-temp lines to 50°F).
- • Humidity under 85%; ideally under 80%.
- • No rain for 24h after application.
- • We use the forecast ground-surface temperature as a surface-temp proxy — confirm on-site with an IR thermometer.
