There are very few levellers suitable for outdoor use mainly due to the fact they are moisture and frost tolerant . A suitable one is ardex k301 and check this F. Ball stopgap 850 .

Tilemaster Flexilevel can be used outside under certain conditions - I think that if it is not the finished surface and won't be subject to long periods of sitting water - but double check with their tech dept.

I spoke to tilemaster recently and they said they don't have an external grade leveller

How large is the area? How thick does the "leveler" need to be? Mapei Planitop fast 330 is a great product, it's not self smoothing but nice to trowel out and finish with a sponge.

if you don't specify the slopes to do or not,
it is useless to speak of self-leveling or leveling.

I think your English is in question.
The OP states has anyone used Wickes products for external levelling?
Therefore, you either have or you haven’t.
Zzzzz

since there are answers that speak of self-leveling and leveling,
provided you know the difference.

here in Italy.....

That's a bit mean... he's Italian and has to use google translate, which is only 50% accurate at the best of times.... Cazzo is his favourite word, he did very well to refrain from using it.

I haven't. So if that's all you want to hear, I'll keep all the better suggestions to myself :)

For the record, all the Setcrete compounds on Wickes website are for internal use only. Unless they have a one-off at your local store you are intent on using.

Good luck.
