Self Leveling compound

[Joseph Kover]

Hi Guys,

what self leveling compound you prefer to use over electric floor heating?
want to avoid the slightest chance of crack on the floor,need enough opening time and prefer fibre based compound. Substrate is cement board over ply done by other contractor
thanks

BAL Level Max. But mix it well, or the fibres will clump together in little balls. But mix it right and its fine.

Another lesson learned........ when you think its ready, keep going for another 2 minutes!

LOL sounds like a tricky one

Not really. I'm just useless

Never used it before..... never even levelled a floor. It only happened on my first bucket but the second one almost looked good enough to drink

That sounds interesting, have to check it out. What minimum thickness you re going for? If it is the one I think of, it can be used on walls as well. (or used similar in Austria back in time)
Thanks

I tried to avoid to use so far any levelling compound to be honest, I don't trust extra layers between substrate and tile adhesive,especially if not concrete floor. Will be 1000*1000 tile size full flat 120 msq 5 open area can't avoid this time. Not happy though with ply Base
