Step 4 · Allow the Adhesive to Cure

After you've installed all your treads, it's essential to let the adhesive work its magic. The double-sided tape needs a full 24 hours to cure and develop its maximum bonding strength. For the best results, avoid heavy foot traffic on the stairs during this period. Also, make sure the treads stay completely dry, as moisture can weaken the adhesive. This short waiting period is a small investment for the long-term safety and stability of your beautiful new staircase.
