Hey.....blame the big man!!!!

I watched his video and he's not done a follow up that says it's all blown off the floor...... :lol:

It's a TINY floor in the grand scheme of things........but it's annoying none the less. When it's all done and got a floor over the top, I'm not going to give it a second thought. Just wanted to do it (more) right after I botched it.

Next time, I'll use your chicken dance and favourite products :mrgreen:

Will do, when it's all sorted.

If it's terrible, might be a few delays while I sign up another account We5 to post from :lol:

I do like to give a laugh, sorry pics are a bit rubbish though.....

Floor before I started. New slab with red bits - basically builders pencils broken to get correct height. I could NOT drill into the slab - it was STUPIDLY hard (SDS, good bits, cheap bits).

Never anticipated the drop was that much at the end......ended up like this:

Done a coat of 1:3 SBR mixed with water as suggested by C_R. Left to dry over night (went to bed really) and it was ready for morning. Next bucket goes down and it covered it all nicely.

When it's dry, I'll see how sh*t it looks. :cb
