vinyl is disgusting

The 2x4 wrapped with a piece of carpet is a great idea. You saved me a couple of bucks on a roller. Thanks.

@ShowMeTheFloor Thx for reply. Over here if we fitted a 1/4 round we would not get paid. Have had layers from European countries come over and silicone their edges which customers did not accept. Our prep inculdes ardex feather finish coat to entire floor right to the edges and we have to cut vinyl exact to edges. Do not have any problem with edges lifting. Are not having a go at you, just pointing out different ways of laying. Wish we did like you as would be far easier.
Cheers :)
Hooray! thanks for the tips,the floor turned out beautifully and was relatively easy considering all the cut outs on the floor, but your tips made so much sense it made it almost easy.

@rdgiliad I used an electric tacker but you can probably glue it to the 2x4

It's a real different way they install vinyl where this guy is from. I would love to work where he is as i would never get paid for that work here in NZ. 1/4 round to hide the cutting in? Why not just take more care.
If you can get away with it i say good luck :)

@burkinators You HAVE to put moulding up around vinyl otherwise it
will eventually curl. You don't put it up to hide your edges. Also your
1/4 round will lay nice and flat if you cut your vinyl a little short around the perimeter
Of the room.
