I need a fast drying levelling compound for a job where time is really tight. What should I use?

With ARDEX K 55 FAST you’ll be walking on your floor in as little as 30 minutes.

This product is designed for those jobs where time is tight or where you discover unexpected smoothing is needed. It's ideal for communal areas, such as hallways and other high traffic areas, domestic properties, retail spaces with overnight refurbishments planned, and sites such as nursing homes where the customer needs to get back on the floor as quickly as possible.

With excellent flow and levelling characteristics, ARDEX K 55 FAST is suitable for most common subfloors and can be applied up to 10mm thick. For absorbent floors, simply prime with ARDEX P 51, diluted 1:3 with water, and for non-absorbent floors such as ceramic tiles, use the ready-for-use ARDEX P 4.

Once mixed, you get a 10-minute working time with ARDEX K 55 FAST, and your floor’s ready for foot traffic in as little as 30 minutes! And on those jobs when you’re really up against it, you can start fitting as soon as your adhesive trowel doesn’t damage the surface… usually in as little as 60 minutes for applications of 3mm.

As with all ultra rapid setting levellers, it’s important to pay attention to the working time. It's always going to be lower on an ultra rapid drying product, so make sure you apply the product immediately after mixing to avoid losing your wet edge. On larger areas it helps to work as a team, but if you’re working alone, pre-measure your mixing water, so you’re ready to mix your next bag straight after application.

So, when time is of the essence, grab a bag of ARDEX K 55 FAST.
