YouTube Workshop/Episode 1: prepping for the pour

In this video I will prepare my garage for a fresh layer of self leveling concrete.
This means cleaning, removing any loose material, priming and installing a stopper profile that serves as a boundary for my self leveling concrete.
The milk I'm referring to is just a primer that is used for self leveling concrete/compound. However you want to name it.
There is also a video about a small deck repair in this job, check it out here:

Other than that, I have to say that pigeons know little to nothing about politics...
Hope you enjoy and stick around for the next one.

@@johng8049 they have steel straps, for extra security. Nail proof!

Hi Allen, thanks for watching and your question. This is a resin based primer for self level compounds or gypsum undergrounds. Here is a link to Mapei's product sheet with an overview. bit.ly/3MsDoq0 Feel free to use another brand if cheaper. Make sure to properly seal the underground for the best results. God luck with your project!!
