SLC how deep can you go

[DHTiling]

Just small chippings about 5mm or so in size will do...they are just added to give the SLC strength when it is applied thick....some types you can add sharp sand to as well.........

try " Chippings R Us " !!!!

Is there a trade name or do you just ask for chippings to put into SLC.

Forget the chippings - use probably the best self leveller available on the market - Mira X Plan, Self levells from 2mm to 50mm without chippings.
Available nationwide - delivery available
Have a look at www.x-plan.co.uk
Not cheap, around £20 per bag, but does the job.
Customer pays anyway

Why waste your time using chippings when you can buy a high performance self leveller that does not need them ? :mad2:
