Never used ardex, Yes you can use slc on wood floor's you want the two part, if it's floor board's just make sure there isnt gaps between the joint's, Run a bead of grip fill in the gap so the slc dos'nt disappear down the jount's.

Arditex (it's a latex mix) is absoulutely fine for wooden floors.

Ardex has quite good documentation on their products availible on their homepage. Most manufacturers do these days actually.

I have been using the low ammonia latex SLC from Ardex alot recently. Its expensive but real good finish with the spiked roller. Used successfully on chipboard, ply and screed.

Good luck

Arditex is spot on for timber.........stinks to the high heavens but good gear.....

Having not used slc before,im jst finding it hard to get into my head that 3-6mm of slc will stick no problem to wood without crumbling,i take it,it is the latex that makes it stick to the wood?

I honestly dont know the chemistry or physics of it but if Ardex say it will, then it will and does. You use adhesive with no reservations, Why? Its just what you are used to.

I take it there is little or no movement in the ply? It will edventually crumble, like adhesive, if there is.
