Hi Everyone, hope all’s well. I’ve been asked to tile a polished concrete floor, approximately 80 m2 , floor is in decent condition was laid last year, what’s beat prep wise?

I can’t get ditra matt or anything like that here.

Thanks

You’ll need to scabble the floor for a key or sand it clean, vacuum, grit prime and leveller. Phone your intended https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ manufacturers tech help line, some of them vary in what they’ll advise their products can do.

Rather than scrabbling it might be possible to use two coats of epoxy primer with sand scatter into the second coat to give you the rough texture to key to.
