I've just poured a lot of diluted SBR over the concrete in the office
floor as it was clearly not put down right and patches were breaking up
[1].

Curse you Microsoft - managed to send too early! Now where was I?

Right, done the SBR, filling some small holes tonight, but whilst working on
the floor it was clear that every expense had been spared when levelling it.
It's not terrible but it's clear why the carpet was suffering in places.

So, self-levelling compound all over? But will it bond to the SBR? Should
I give the floor a quick "paint" with some SBR beforehand or should I add
SBR to the levelling compound to help it bond?

If you've done this before, and it worked, all suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,

[1] For anyone doing this, the NG recommended a 1:1 SBR/water mix. I poured
almost 5+5litres over 6m2 of floor - in some places it pooled immediately
but in others the "concrete" seemed more like "sponge bob square pants"
requiring me to pour, and pour, and pour again. So my tip is buy a lot more
SBR than you think and return any unopened containers which you don't use.
