Uptown 8 Saint Charles Vinyl Glue Down by Shaw is a 2 mm thick waterproof Product.  This is such a great value for homeowners who have high-traffic areas.  If you have dogs or children, you can’t go wrong with glue-down vinyl planks.  It gives you the look of real hardwood floors without the cost and maintenance.  Glue-down flooring material involves the application of using an adhesive to the concrete base.  The installation technique allows the flooring to have great dimensional stability.  There are two types of adhesives used in gluing down flooring.  Hard Set Adhesive is used for heavy loads and foot traffic.  Therefore, it reduces the appearance of indents.  The second adhesive is Pressure Sensitive Adhesive.  It is the most used because it is more versatile and easier to replace.

The Uptown 8 Collection has an 8 mil wear layer.  So, what is a wear layer?  The wear layer helps your floor last longer. The wear layer is a clear PVC film that is applied to the photographic layer of your floor.  For example, if you rolled around your floor on a desk chair, the wear layer is what is protecting your floor from wearing down to the color.   The wear layer adds an extra boost of durability and extends the life of your vinyl flooring.  As you may have guessed the thicker the wear layer the tougher the flooring will be.
