Depends what you floor is finished with, but plastic is a no-no for some finishes, even those rubber rug liners can ruin some finishes. Most finishes (polyurethane) have a plastic in them so another plastic interacts with that plastic. The floor needs to breath. You could put a cotton material down first, than the plastic, than the rug, or find a cotton lined plastic, maybe even those flannel back plastic tablecloths? A wood-flooring store would know, or even a store that sells oriental rugs. |
