layering S.L.C

[merlecollins]

Has enyone used Level Flex? its a fiber slc. I supposedly goes from 0 to 50mm. Used it a couple of times, seemed OK. Time will tell

Never used that one Phil, but one I have used a lot over the years is Wickes Master High Performance Leveller If anyone can tell me that it's not Fiberplan re-bagged I'll be amazed:yikes: A few years ago I mentioned it to the Mapei rep, who was curious as he said that his MD had been in talks with Wickes........

Ultra say it's ok to layer SLC as long as you prime it after it has been down for 24 hours

I've always waited till dry and re-prime before layering SLC, bt like Dave says some manufacturers stipulate you doing it whilst the previous layer is slightly wet, Ardex spring to mind:smilewinkgrin:

I've spoken to an application manager about this, you can more or less always go layer on layer but if you let the first layer dry you must prime between the layers or you can go straight on top if the first layer is still slightly wet (so you could just about still put finger marks in it). My advice would be to let the first layer dry and then prime before you put the second layer on.

Althoug I'm pretty sure all the following companies do a leveller that will go to at least 50mm

Norcros
Tilemaster
Weber
Maxit
Ultra
Mapei

PCI HSP34 will level from 3mm to 60mm even on timber floors.

I have used this a few times as it is what my stone supplier has.

Nice to use and feels just like fibre plan but goes deeper in depth.

What does the wickes one smell like if that isn't a weird question:lol: Mapei grouts and ultraplan have an almost fruity smell about them

I thought wickes gear was Weber

Not sure about that because aren't they the same group as tile giant?
