A latex floor finish is a type of synthetic combination that can be used to create an even surface on which you can install other types of flooring. It is commonly used for creating a smooth surface on which to lay vinyl, carpet, or tile.

It is also used to add a layer of protection to existing floors. It is a highly durable and water-resistant compound that can be used for both residential and commercial applications. This type of finish has a low odor and will not crack, peel, or chip as easily as other finishes. It is easy to apply and clean up, and it will not stain, so it is a good choice for busy families.

This type of finish is available in both water-based and oil-based versions. Water-based polyurethane is less toxic than oil-based and dries much faster. However, it will yellow slightly over time. If you are using it on wood, be sure to choose a formula that is compatible with the type of wood you are working with.

A self-leveling compound or latex screed is a liquid floor material that can be poured and trowelled onto a floor to fill in areas that are not level and to create an even surface. It can be used as a base for installing carpet, tiles, or vinyl and is an excellent option for uneven or damaged concrete or cement-based floors that need to be levelled before other flooring is installed.
