How to Use Fix-All to Level Flooring
- 1). Walk around the subfloor to ensure it is stable. If the subfloor flexes under your foot, fix or replace the subfloor before using Fix-It-All. Fix-It-All will not stabilize the floor, and can create more damage.
- 2). Sweep the floor to remove any dust and debris. Mop the subfloor with soap and water to remove any grime and dirt. Allow the floor to dry thoroughly.
- 3). Place a level or straight edge over the subfloor to look for uneveness, or valleys.
- 4). Mark the low valleys in the subfloor with a pen.
- 5). Attach a mixing hook to a cordless drill to mix the Fix-It-All and water together.
- 6). Pour the Fix-It-All compound into a clean bucket. Mix 6 1/2 oz. of water with 1 lb. Fix-It-All, or add enough cool water to the desired amount of Fix-It-All to form a heavy, paste consistency.
- 7). Pour the Fix-All mixture into the circled, low areas of the subfloor.
- 8). Smooth out the mixture into the low areas with a squeegee. Allow the mixture to set for 30 minutes; don't walk over the set mixture for two to four hours and don't replace the flooring for 12 to 24 hours.
- 9). Rinse the Fix-All from the drill, bucket and squeegee immediately.
