Description
Palace Flow-Level is a 2-part (bag & bottle), highly flowable latex smoothing and floor levelling compound, ideal for use when preparing sub-floors to receive decorative floor coverings. It helps achieve the smoothest possible surface finish prior to laying vinyl, laminate, parquet, carpet underlay and ceramic tiles.
Key Benefits
- Fast drying – walkable after 90 minutes
- Levels from 2mm up to 12mm in a single pour
- Ready for tiling after 3 hours (3mm layer); decorative or vinyl floors after 4 hours
- Bonds readily to most solid sub-floors without priming
- Moisture-tolerant formulation, ready to over-coat with Palace 1-Coat DPM for moisture-sensitive coverings
- Suitable for use with underfloor heating systems
- CT C16:F4 classified to EN 13813
Applications
Used by professional tilers, bathroom fitters, wetroom installers and builders to smooth and level solid sub-floors ahead of ceramic tiles, vinyl, laminate, parquet, carpet underlay and other decorative floor coverings. Suitable for application over concrete, sand/cement screeds, tile backer boards, existing ceramic and stone tiles, existing vinyl tiles, green screed, plywood overlay, flooring-grade asphalt, epoxy DPM and moisture-stable adhesive residues. Anhydrite (calcium sulphate) screeds must be correctly prepared and primed with Palace Multi-Prime before application.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness can Palace Flow-Level be applied at?
It can be poured from 2mm up to 12mm in a single application, making it suitable for both minor levelling and deeper corrections across solid sub-floors.
How long before I can tile or lay flooring over it?
The area is walkable after 90 minutes, ready for tiling after 3 hours for a 3mm layer, and ready for decorative or vinyl floor coverings after 4 hours, dependent on temperature, substrate and site conditions.
Does the sub-floor need priming first?
In most cases no — Palace Flow-Level bonds readily to most solid sub-floors without priming. Highly porous surfaces and anhydrite screeds should be primed with Palace Multi-Prime to maximise flow time and adhesion strength.
Can it be used with underfloor heating?
Yes, Palace Flow-Level is approved for use with electric sub-floor heating systems and will provide a level floor bed from 2mm to 12mm deep.
What surfaces can Palace Flow-Level be applied to?
Concrete, sand/cement screed, tile backer boards, existing ceramic and stone tiles, existing vinyl tiles, green screed, plywood overlay, flooring-grade asphalt, epoxy DPM and moisture-stable adhesive residues, subject to correct surface preparation.
