Jessica DeHollander –
The cork looks great. Remove all ‘buttons’ from bottoms of furniture and replace with Felt Pads & Surface Protectors, protect floor from larger pieces like a bed, piano, with cutout pads of leftover cork tiles or all these will leave marks in the flooring as it is soft.
Kali Leach –
We used Forna 8mm Silver Birch cork tiles in my Boathouse. It looks great. I have sent some photos to Cancork.
