Substrate preparation

Self-Levelling Floor Compound

Plan substrate preparation, priming, moisture control and levelling before the final floor finish.

Self-Levelling Floor Compound is used to create an even installation plane over concrete and cementitious substrates before PVC, carpet, parquet, rubber, resin or other final flooring. It should not be treated as the final wearing surface unless its current technical data specifically permits that use. Application thickness, compressive strength, primer, water ratio, mixing, working and drying time must be selected and verified against substrate soundness, absorbency, moisture and the planned floor finish.

Selection and technical review

Provide the concrete or screed type, strength, moisture measurement, surface profile, existing finish and planned top layer. Primers, moisture barriers and levelling products do not perform the same function. Verify application limits, thickness, consumption and recoating intervals against the current TDS/SDS for the supplied product.

Application and handover preparation

Assess weak layers, contamination and old residues using an appropriate method; detail cracks, joints and active water problems separately. Record preparation checks, the trial area, batch and application conditions. Determine next-coat timing and compatibility from the technical system instructions.
