    I bought some non latex based SLC from B&Q and it says on the packet to use pva as a primer before applying the SLC. I'm a bit concerned that I'm only applying SLC to patches and there will be overspill of pva on other areas wher ther will be tiling and I've read here that tiling and pva...

    self levelling over adhesive

    Can you use self levelling cement on a floor once you've ripped out a previous floor tiling job to make it right for the new job? This has to be quicker than chipping away at uneven cement right? If so presumably you have to swish it about to make sure it gets inall the gaps.
