The PROvantage Subfloor product appears to “skin over” quickly after it is applied. Does this affect overall open time or bond strength?

No, you will get the same open time as traditional solvent based adhesives. Also, the quick skinning will not have a negative affect on bonding characteristics. In fact, this minimizes the chance of “splattering”*, giving you maximum performance & superior strength development.

* When an adhesive ‘splatters’ during the installation, it leaves a smaller bead than its original form, resulting in decreased bond strength and possible floor squeaks. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
