Mixing:
A 20kg bag of LevelMore Flex&Fibre must be mixed with 4.5 to 5.0 litres of clean, cold water. Within this range, the performance of the product is maintained whilst still offering the flexibility to adjust the water to obtain the desired consistency and flow. Do not exceed 5 litres of water per 20kg of LevelMore Flex&Fibre. Pour the measured water into a clean bucket. Gradually add the powder whilst mixing thoroughly with an electric paddle mixer until a smooth, lump-free consistency is achieved. The compound is ready for use immediately after mixing.

Application:
LevelMore Flex&Fibre can be applied at a thickness of 2mm to 50mm in a single application. Pour the mixed compound onto the prepared floor before using a trowel or rake to regulate the thickness and guide the product into the desired areas. Whilst the product is still wet, the use of a *spiked roller can further enhance the surface finish by removing any trapped air.

*The use of a spiked roller is only recommended when the product has been applied at a thickness that will allow the roller
to freely roll through the compound.

Pumped Application:
LevelMore Flex&Fibre can be pump applied using appropriate pumping equipment.

Coverage:
Coverage will vary depending on the background’s texture and the product’s application thickness. As a guide, a 20kg bag of LevelMore Contract powder mixed with 5 litres of LevelMore Contract liquid will provide the following approximate coverage:

For a 2mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 6.45m²
For a 3mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 4.3m²
For a 5mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 2.58m²
For a 10mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 1.29m²
For a 20mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 0.64m²
For a 50mm thick adhesive bed, it will cover about 0.25m²
