Formulated for rapid early-strength gain and low shrinkage, it can be specified as a finished self-levelling topping or as a levelling underlayment beneath epoxy, polyaspartic, resin, tile and vinyl flooring systems, in commercial, industrial and residential interiors. For interior use by trained flooring contractors and applicators. Confirm intended use, wear exposure, sealing or overcoat requirements and suitability against the current ResinTech TDS, SDS and project specification before use. Professional system note: ResinTech SLC can be used as a finished self-levelling topping or as a levelling underlayment depending on the project. Where it serves as a finished wear surface, seal the cured surface with a compatible sealer or clear topcoat and confirm curing and traffic requirements against the current ResinTech TDS. Where it is overcoated, confirm priming, overcoat windows and system compatibility against the current TDS. View the full range of ResinTech floor coating systems available at Canopus Supply. Key Benefits Abrasion-resistant wear surface — independently tested at 619 mm³ against a ≤800 mm³ limit, supporting use as a finished interior topping, not only as an underlayment Rapid early-strength gain — faster return to service and reduced project downtime Low drying shrinkage — ≤0.05%, reducing 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 Dual-purpose — specify as a finished self-levelling topping or as a levelling underlayment beneath tile, vinyl, resin and epoxy systems Strong substrate adhesion — bond strength ≥2.0 MPa; a sound base for finish systems Low odour — suitable for occupied or semi-occupied commercial interiors Specifications Manufacturer's declared specifications to JC/T 985-2017; abrasion resistance independently lab-tested. Confirm against the current ResinTech TDS, SDS and project conditions before specifying or ordering.

Best-Use Applications Confirm all applications against the current ResinTech TDS before specifying. Finished interior self-levelling topping / seamless wear surface (sealed) Smooth, walk-on floors for commercial, retail and residential interiors Renovation and resurfacing over sound existing interior floors Industrial and warehouse floor toppings (seal or topcoat to suit the traffic) Levelling underlayment beneath epoxy and polyaspartic flooring systems Resin flooring underlayment Tile, stone, vinyl and LVT flooring preparation 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 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 5.0–5.5 L of clean, potable water (about 20–22% by weight) in a clean mixing vessel. Mix with a low-speed drill and paddle for 2–3 minutes to a smooth, lump-free, pourable consistency. 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 with a gauge rake or spreader to the required thickness (3–60 mm per pass). The material self-levels under its own flow. Use a spiked roller to release entrapped air and assist levelling. Work continuously within the working time — do not allow cold joints to form, and protect from rapid drying and traffic until set. Confirm application method and thickness against the current TDS. Curing, Sealing & Overcoating Protect freshly applied SLC from drafts, direct sunlight and rapid drying during the initial cure. Where SLC is left as a finished topping, seal the cured surface with a compatible sealer or clear topcoat once it has reached an acceptable moisture content, and confirm curing and traffic-readiness against the current TDS. Where a flooring system is to be applied over SLC, confirm the minimum overcoating time and required strength and moisture content against the current TDS before overcoating. Limitations Interior use as tested (JC/T 985-2017). Exterior and freeze-thaw performance are not covered by the current data — confirm with the manufacturer before any exterior application Where used as an exposed finished topping, seal with a compatible sealer/topcoat; for heavy industrial or vehicular traffic, apply a flooring/topcoat system rather than leaving the SLC bare Do not apply to substrates with active water ingress or rising damp — confirm against TDS Do not apply outside the recommended temperature range (5–35°C) — confirm against TDS Do not over-water the mix — excess water reduces compressive strength and increases shrinkage risk Coverage Information Based on approx. 1.7 kg/m² per 1 mm of thickness. Actual coverage varies with substrate condition, surface profile and application method. Confirm against the current TDS. Application Thickness Approx. Coverage per 25 kg Bag 3 mm Approx. 4.9 m² 5 mm Approx. 2.9 m² 10 mm Approx. 1.5 m² 30 mm Approx. 0.49 m² 60 mm (max per pass) Approx. 0.25 m² Frequently Asked Questions Can ResinTech SLC be left as a finished floor? Yes. ResinTech SLC is dual-use — it can be specified as a finished interior self-levelling topping or as a levelling underlayment. Because it is independently abrasion-tested (619 mm³ against a ≤800 mm³ limit), it can be left as a finished interior wear surface. For exposed topping use, seal the cured surface with a compatible sealer or clear topcoat to control dusting and staining and improve wear resistance. Confirm requirements against the current TDS and project specification before use. What flooring systems can be applied over ResinTech SLC? When used as an underlayment, ResinTech SLC accepts 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 maximum application thickness is 60 mm 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 an interior product, tested to JC/T 985-2017 (an interior self-levelling standard). Exterior and freeze-thaw performance are not covered by the current test data. Do not use it externally without first confirming exterior suitability with the manufacturer and against the current TDS and project specification. Where can I buy ResinTech SLC in BC?

Why Specify ResinTech SLC ResinTech SLC delivers a finished, abrasion-resistant self-levelling floor straight from the pour — a smooth, seamless interior topping that is tested to take wear, not just hide under a coating. Formulated for professional flooring contractors who need a reliable, rapid-strength levelling compound that performs consistently across commercial and industrial project conditions, its self-smoothing flow, low shrinkage and tested wear resistance make it a practical choice for finished self-levelling floors — and it doubles as a levelling underlayment when you need one.
