Vinyl floor - how do we install?

[Dobela]

Snagged a new piece of vinyl today that will fit the coop (12x12) for only $25. How should we attach it to the plywood floors?
Thanks!

glue for linelouem or you can nail it down.

I used the laminate glue and a a trowel. I spread it all over then rolled the laminate out. I took a scrap 2x4 wrapped in an old shirt an smoothed it all out. Then I came back in about twenty minutes and resmoothed whatever was bubbling up.

After it dried completely I took a razor blade and cleaned up the edges.

Wow, I wish ours didn't have sides up yet! That looks so much easier! We will be looking for the glue soon. How much will we need?

Would nailing it down enourage moisture to seep thru? If not, we have lots of nails on hand...

I would "loose lay" it...just cut it to fit and run some quarter round around the perimeter to hold in place. Make it real easy if you ever need to pull it out and replace.

I used an electric stapler/nail gun...It's been 2 years and it's wonderful to keep clean!
