Is latex slc recommended over water based slc?

[John the tile]

Kitchen floor has 90 % of the bitumen taken up, there`s no loose stuff left and whats left is staying down. The floor is uneven and I will be applying sbr/cement slurry first.

Should I use a latex slc or will a water based slc be ok. ?

Thanks

I tend to use flexible slc just as standard..

but you can get flexi in water and latex based Mark.. What's the substrate?

The substrate is concrete - an old victorian house. Sbr/cement slurry as recommended on here.

Is mapei renovation flexi? This is proabably what ill use.

I only asked because I thought I read somewhere on here that it was best to use a latex slc because of its More flexibilty ontop of the small amount of bitumen remains. A kind of belt and braces apporoach? Im guessing it would be an overkill?

Thanks

I'm sure you'll be fine with it John.
