If it has a dpm underneath you can use a liquid dpm on top. Prime using water based epoxy wait for it to dry (6 hrs) then apply second coat and while still tacky scatter with dry silica sand. Leave to set for 16 hrs min the vac up any loose sand then tile. Alternatively use dotes

I was always told 1mm per day
I would expect the floor to be a minimum of 100mm thick, so three months would be a good estimate.
I'm not sure putting a DPM on top would be a good idea as the moisture could never escape!?:confused:
