Self Levelling compound onto green concrete? - TilersForums.com

[dougmontgomery]

Ive got to lay victorian geometric tiles onto a newly laid (just over a week) concrete surface that isn't flat. The job is external. Would it be best to use a self levelling compound and if so, is there a Self level product suitable for green concrete?

If not, would it be possible to lay the tiles using BAL green screed adhesive and still get a flat finish?

Thanks,

Doug

Thanks, I'm in London and the weathers still warmish here, although occasional rain. No frost yet. Will that make any difference?

Screed is now where near suitable. You could get the job done, then 1 good frosty night, and the lot will go. Not worth the chance.

I cant think of an slc that's suitable for exterior use though others on here may know of one.
