Just spoke to Ardex. They recommended a light sanding to remove the
PVA from the floor and then using their primer ?

Did you use their primer ?

Tim


Yes I did, it was PVA like (from recollection), I used their stuff on the
assumption that if it went wrong they couldn't blame anyone else - the
primer was very cheap, at around £10 for 5 litres (I did 20sqm, and only
used 1/2) - the 7001 system was the expensive bit around £25/bag, and the
admix stuff was around £10-15 (maybe more) - I used quite a lot as of
adhesive (more than they said I would) ~ 10-12bags , as I had 'uneven'
slates to level out - the mixture is grey, which was fine for me and I used
their grey flexible grout - not sure what other colours they had - as this
is a 'professional' product you wont find it in B&Q / Wickes etc you need to
got to a specialist flooring supplier, so as always go in in old scruffy
clothes and they may go on the assumption that you are in the trade, hence
perhaps get a discount

Good luck
