Hi folks...
I have a concrete basement and wanted to tile. The concrete was old and fundamentally sound but the surface was a little beat up so I was going to level it out with self-levelling product from LevelQuik... That called for a latex primer of theirs to be put on before the compound; this product: http://www.custombuildingproducts.com/TDS/TDS-234.pdf
My issue arises when I realize that this concrete shouldn't be levelled because it slopes to a drain. So, I decide to use this resurfacing concrete: http://www.sakrete.com/uploads/downloads/Sakrete Flo-Coat Concrete Resurfacer 5-12.pdf
My questions now becomes... Can I put the new compound over the latex primed concrete floor or should I strip the primer somehow and if so, with what? All I wanted was to 'clean' up the original concrete before I tile.. but I keep shooting myself in the foot...
