Your Questions, Answered
The main benefit is time. BritFlex S1 Slowset gives you a 3-hour pot life, compared to just 40 minutes for rapid set. This is crucial during hot weather (which speeds up setting times) or for complex layouts where you need more time to cut and position tiles.
You need to wait 24 hours before grouting or allowing foot traffic. Because it sets slowly, walking on it too soon can disturb the bond and cause unevenness.
Yes, it is suitable for Interior and Exterior Use. In fact, it is often preferred for outdoor porcelain because the extended open time allows you to achieve the solid bed (100% coverage) required for external paving more easily.
Yes, it is Suitable for Wooden Flooring. The "S1" classification means it is polymer modified and flexible, allowing it to absorb the vibration and movement of timber substrates without cracking.
Absolutely. It is compatible with both matted and piped underfloor heating systems. The flexibility allows for thermal expansion and contraction.
A 20kg bag will cover approximately 5sq.m at a 3mm bed depth. If you are using large format tiles that require a thicker bed (e.g., 6-10mm), you will get less coverage per bag.
