Building up layers - TilersForums.com

Is it ok to build up layers with both slc (around 8mm) and also with cement based addy to correct the falls on top a a marmox shower tray? The falls are somewhere near but just a little low on just one corner.

Cheers

fibreplan slc will go to above 8mm thickness

you can make up 8mm with mapei fibreplan s.l.c in one go

most cement based adhesives have a maximum depth of about 6mm PTB is about 20mm which is ideal if you have some but there are a few like PCI Nanolite which allow you to go to about 15-20mm CHECK on the bag or look at there website

Cheers for the replies lads but I typed in a hurry as leaving for for work and i think you mis-understood, what i mean is can i just float out some addy from about 6mm to a feather edge, let it harden then tile over the top of it with a 10mm half moon trowel with travertine? hope so!

Cheers

souldn't be a problem if its a decent slc. Cheap stuff won't feather edge very well

p.s. had a canny meal in "The Dun Cow" sunday gone!
