ResinTech SLC — Professional Self-Leveling Mortar

Field Details
Brand ResinTech
Product Code SLC
Product Type Self-Leveling Cement / Floor Leveling Compound
Packaging 25 kg bag
Typical System Role Substrate preparation — applied before resin, epoxy, tile, or vinyl flooring systems

ResinTech SLC is a high-performance, self-leveling cementitious mortar designed to create smooth, flat, and durable surfaces for professional flooring installations. Formulated for rapid early-strength gain and low shrinkage, it is suitable for use under epoxy, polyaspartic, resin, tile, and vinyl flooring systems in commercial, industrial, and residential applications. For use by trained flooring contractors and applicators. Confirm suitability against the current TDS and project specification before use.

Professional system note: ResinTech SLC is applied as a substrate preparation layer prior to resin or cementitious flooring systems. Confirm application sequence, recoat windows, and system compatibility against the current ResinTech TDS before use.

Key Benefits

Confirm all performance characteristics against the current manufacturer TDS before specifying.

  • Rapid early-strength gain — allows faster return to service and reduced project downtime
  • Low shrinkage formulation — reduces the risk of cracking and delamination during cure
  • High crack resistance — maintains surface integrity under thermal and mechanical stress
  • Self-smoothing, high-flow consistency — levels under its own weight for a flat, uniform surface
  • Strong substrate adhesion — bonds to prepared concrete, screed, and existing substrates
  • Interior and exterior applications — suitable for a range of project environments; confirm against TDS
  • Low odour — suitable for occupied or semi-occupied commercial spaces
  • Freeze-thaw resistant — maintains performance in variable climate conditions; confirm against TDS
  • Compatible with multiple flooring systems — suitable under tile, vinyl, resin, and epoxy flooring; confirm system compatibility against TDS

Best-Use Applications

Confirm all applications against the current ResinTech TDS before specifying.

  • Epoxy and polyaspartic flooring substrate preparation
  • Resin flooring underlayment
  • Tile and stone installations
  • Vinyl and LVT flooring preparation
  • Commercial and retail floor leveling
  • Industrial floor leveling and repair
  • Residential floor leveling prior to decorative systems
  • Decorative concrete system preparation

Application Notes

Always confirm application requirements against the current TDS, SDS and project specification before use.

Surface Preparation

Substrate must be clean, structurally sound, and free of oil, grease, dust, curing compounds, and loose material. Mechanically prepare the surface as required. Check for moisture — confirm acceptable moisture vapour emission rate (MVER) against the current TDS before application. Install perimeter edge strips or forms to contain the pour. Confirm all preparation requirements against the current TDS.

Priming

A primer coat may be required depending on substrate porosity and condition. Confirm primer requirements and compatible primer products against the current TDS before application. Allow primer to cure fully before applying SLC.

Mixing

Add the full 25 kg bag to approximately 7.0 L of clean, potable water in a clean mixing vessel. Mix using a low-speed drill and paddle mixer for 2–3 minutes until a smooth, lump-free consistency is achieved. Do not add excess water — over-watering reduces strength and increases shrinkage. Confirm mixing ratio and procedure against the current TDS.

Application

Pour the mixed SLC onto the prepared substrate and spread using a gauge rake or spreader to the required thickness (1–6 cm per pass). The material will self-level under its own flow. Use a spiked roller to release entrapped air and assist leveling. Work continuously — do not allow cold joints to form. Confirm application method and thickness against the current TDS.

Curing & Overcoating

Protect the freshly applied SLC from drafts, direct sunlight, and rapid drying during the initial cure period. Confirm minimum overcoating time before applying the flooring system against the current TDS. Do not apply flooring systems before the SLC has reached the required strength and moisture content. Confirm all cure requirements against the current TDS.

Limitations
  • Do not apply to substrates with active water ingress or rising damp — confirm against TDS
  • Do not apply in temperatures outside the recommended range — confirm against TDS
  • Do not over-water the mix — excess water reduces compressive strength and increases shrinkage risk
  • Not intended as a wearing surface — must be covered with a flooring system; confirm against TDS
  • Confirm freeze-thaw suitability for specific exterior applications against the current TDS

Coverage Information

Coverage figures are indicative only. Actual coverage varies with substrate condition, surface profile, and application method. Always confirm against the current TDS.

Application Thickness Indicative Coverage per 25 kg Bag
1 cm Approx. 1.67 m² — confirm against TDS
2 cm Approx. 0.83 m² — confirm against TDS
3 cm Approx. 0.56 m² — confirm against TDS
6 cm (max per pass) Approx. 0.28 m² — confirm against TDS

Frequently Asked Questions

What flooring systems can be applied over ResinTech SLC?

ResinTech SLC is designed as a substrate preparation layer for epoxy, polyaspartic, resin, tile, vinyl, and decorative concrete flooring systems. Confirm system compatibility and minimum overcoating times against the current TDS and the flooring system manufacturer's documentation before use.

Do I need to prime the substrate before applying SLC?

Priming requirements depend on substrate porosity, condition, and the specific application. Confirm primer requirements against the current TDS. Applying SLC to an unprimed, highly porous substrate without following TDS guidance may affect adhesion and surface quality.

What is the maximum thickness per pass?

The indicative maximum application thickness is 6 cm per pass. For greater depths, multiple passes may be required — confirm layering requirements and minimum cure times between passes against the current TDS.

Can ResinTech SLC be used on exterior surfaces?

ResinTech SLC is indicated as suitable for interior and exterior applications. Confirm suitability for specific exterior conditions, including freeze-thaw exposure and moisture, against the current TDS and project specification before use.

How long before I can apply the flooring system over SLC?

Minimum overcoating time depends on ambient temperature, humidity, and the SLC thickness applied. Confirm minimum cure and overcoating times against the current TDS before applying any flooring system. Applying too early may compromise adhesion and system performance.

Where can I buy ResinTech SLC in BC?

Why Specify ResinTech SLC

A flat, sound substrate is the foundation of every high-performance flooring system. ResinTech SLC is formulated for professional flooring contractors who require a reliable, rapid-strength leveling compound that performs consistently across commercial and industrial project conditions. Its self-smoothing flow, low shrinkage, and compatibility with multiple flooring systems make it a practical choice for substrate preparation prior to resin, epoxy, tile, and vinyl installations.

Confirm all performance claims, application conditions, and system compatibility against the current manufacturer TDS and SDS before specifying or ordering.
