What's going on, everybody Adam here, with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the glue that you're gonna use to install the Source Company RV vinyl flooring. We're gonna have two different glue options, with two different size options. We're gonna have a one gallon and also a four gallon. The one gallon is gonna cover up to about 150 square foot. And then the four gallon is gonna be about 600 square foot.
As far as the different glues, we're gonna have the 801 and the 601. The 601 is just gonna be for your wood floors, but then the 801 is gonna be for metal floors, wood floors, or your concrete floors in your garage. As you can see, we have nice new floors in our trailer. Yesterday, we went ahead and installed all this. I used to both the glues.
So, the 601 I used on half of the trailer, and this is gonna be a lot thicker. It's a lot harder to deal with, in my opinion. But then the 801 is a lot thinner, and it's easier to spread, and it did last a little bit longer, meaning it covered a little bit more square footage than the 601. The nice thing about the 801, it's gonna be a little bit easier to take up, if you need to, you just need a little bit of heat and it'll come right up. But we'll go over that, and you can see it, how it goes down in the installation we did yesterday.
Now that the flooring is all rolled out, I kinda folded in the sides, just so we're not gonna have any issues with the wheel wells. So, now that that's done, I'm gonna grab it, I'm gonna bring it all the way to the front here. And we wanna get it all the way to the edge. I wanted to make sure that it is even on both sides. So, you can use either these little wheel wells for a reference, but try to get it as straight as you can.
And, what I'm gonna do, is start on one side of the trailer, make sure it's nice and flush, start making my cuts, and then once that's taken care of, I'll do the rest of the sides. So, there's one thing that we're doing today, just because I wanna be able to wash this out. And what we're doing, is we're taking the caulk off, between the wall and the ground. So it's gonna sit, flush to that little edge, because it does kinda stick up a little bit, and we wanna make sure that it's going to adhese very well to the bottom, and stay nice and flat, but we're gonna caulk over the top of it, to seal it back up again. This is something we talked about with the Source Company, and they have not tested it, but we're gonna go ahead and do it today, just to see if it's gonna work. And so we can give it a nice seal. One tip, when you're cutting, it does come in handy to have some sort of flat edge, whether it's something small like this for the corners, or for the longer runs, you can use something flat like this. The idea here is to get the flooring as pinned into that corner as possible. So, then whenever we go ahead and make the cut, it's gonna be right in that corner, and it's gonna be a straight cut. So, especially on the longer ones, it's nicer to use a longer, straight edge, just because it's not multiple, different cuts, and you won't see as many differences in the line. So, that's just a quick tip to get this done as smoothly as possible. Another thing I found kinda useful, in certain situations, is to kinda take the trial, push it up against that wall, and bring that knife with it. In this way, it's nice and straight, as you can see, and it just really makes a really smooth and even cut. And, if we do end up with some uneven cuts, I do not suggest taking the knife, and try to cut it like this. What I found best to do, is take it like this, and kinda run your blade over the top of it, taking a little to har
