Jasco makes a product that I have used with success prior to installing
self-stick vinyl tiles. Their Adhesive Primer is available at Home Depot
(SKU #983888)...

"For use on drywall, hardboard, plywood, concrete, and Glasscrete. Primes
floors and walls before applying adhesive. Prevents dry out when adhesive is
drawn below the surface. Eliminates the need for sizing before applying
wallpaper. Ensures adhesion of self-stick floor tile. Easy water cleanup.
Covers 300 to 500 square feet per gallon."

Thanks for this timely tip; we're about to do the same thing in our
basement project. We haven't had problems with the tiles that are there,
but I'd rather do a little "overkill" for the new tiles.
