CustomTech TechLevel-WSF Self-Leveling Underlayment - 50 lb Bag
TechLevel-WSF SLU is a high flow, fiber reinforced calcium aluminate cement based, self-leveling underlayment that eliminates the need for reinforcing lath over plywood and OSB on interior wood framed subfloors. It produces a smooth, level substrate ready for the installation of ceramic and natural stone tile, wood, carpet, and other resilient floor coverings.
Formulated with Controlled Cure Technology™, TechLevel-WSF SLU helps eliminate installation problems such as slow drying, bond failure, crumbling, and staining of resilient flooring caused by the free moisture found in traditional underlayment.
