Hi. My floor at home is part screed and part marley tiles. I need to level the floor, so was thinking take the marleys up and cover the bitumen residue ( not even a mil thick) with Arditex NA. Then any more levelling that needs to be done, I can use my normal Ultra leveller on top. Is this the way people would go about it ? Or should I just do a slurry coat of SBR and leveller on the residue. Thanks for any replies. Steve.

I would imagine the bag will have the mixing requirements on it.

The one I use is 4.5 litres of water to mix the whole bag, and I keep an old juice bottle in my van to make sure I can measure it out, as SLC is the only thing I mix to the exact instructions

My wife went off her head when she went to get her mixing jug from the kitchen cupboard!!!
Erm, sorry but it's in my van don't think you will want it back.
Had to buy her a nice new one.
