Do I need to prime floor before self Levelling?

Wood floors need to be primed before covering them with self leveler. The floor will be covered with water-saturated leveler, which will cause the wood to swell. It will shrink back down when it dries, which could cause cracks in the underlayment and tiles above. The primer prevents the wood from absorbing water.

What is the difference between screed and self Levelling compound?

One major difference between semi dry and self-levelling screeds is the thickness. Semi dry screeds are typically installed at greater thicknesses, typically 65 – 75 mm although this can vary depending on how the screed is to be installed i.e. bonded, unbonded or floating on insulation.
