Makes levelling floors a doddle
The roller is for getting rid of air trapped in. It will help slightly on spreading the compound. :yes:
First though, you must use a Professional levelling compound spreader (I have used for over 2 years now. See the attached photo.) and you will see great improvements and because you use it standing up, it makes the job quicker and saves your knees. :happy:
You can adjust the height required and because it has several pins it will even up bad areas better than your tile spreader would. I think the width is 80 cm or bigger.
A word of caution when used on u/f heating wires as you could damage the wires with this tool. Also caution when using rollers as you can "spray" the adjasent walls and furniture with levelling compound. Always move it extra slow and parallel to the object/wall/doors...
The best way to deal with leveling compound is to find out how much and where you need it. My approach is::8:
1) to place a cross laser level on a pole, spreading the laser horizontaly from one corner of the room towards the opposite corner at a height of aprox. 1.1m,
2) then get a 1.2 m spirit level and stand it in front of the laser beam.
3) making sure that the spirit level is "Plumb", I make a mark where the laser shows on the spirit level.
4) from then on I can cross reference that mark on the spirit level accross dozens of places to see how good/ bad the floor is.
You can also stick some broken tiles with adhesive or sand and cement (according the height) as reference points so you know how much it needs raising.
Hope this is useful to some of you.
