Hi,

Please note i posted this in building forum first, so apologies

I would really appreciate it if i could get some advice on what floor finish to lay

basically i have a 24 sqm floor in a domestic studio space which will be used as a wood workshop, no forklifts or the like!

Presently the floor is made up of a 6 inch reinforced slab with dpm seperating it from insulation below.

The floor is fairly level with about a max 4mm difference over the 4m width, i put this down to footfall over the past 2 yrs, thats how long the slab has been down for.

I would like to have a smooth finish on top, not a glossy polished finish but just something that is flat and doesn't break up under foot fall. not that the floor is breaking up at the moment but it does "dust" a bit with a lot of foot fall.

I also don't want this floor finish to be very thick, ideally between 5-10mm

I have been advised by manufacturers but not one gives the same answer, sbr in concrete, larsen slc2000, ardex k301.

I don't want to break the bank but i don't want the floor to crack! any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?
:oops:
