Having watched loads of u tube how to dos, I went ahead and used self levelling compound on the concrete floor of my downstairs bathroom. The job itself was quite successful but the first load I mixed was a bit too thick and although I tried to trowel it, it did not spread too well. The second mix was better and virtually did the job itself, just needed helping into the edges. After a while you get to know what the mix should look like.
Now its dry, I have a couple of low spots where I was a bit light on the pour, nothing too drastic and I could probably take it up in the tile cement. But my question is, could I just make up a fairly thin mix and just pour it in those areas ? Would this bond ok to the previous layer and could I get away without going over the whole floor?
Would like fairly quick response if possible as I want to do the job tomorrow, Thanks

Re: self levelling concrete floor
Well didn't get a response, left it too late to give people time to answer. Anyhow, Went ahead and patched in. Not perfect to look at but with a small allowance here and there on the adhesive, it wiil be fine. I don't think I could lay a floor that won't be covered, like a garage floor to paint. But sure this will be fine.
