How to use Ardex Feather Finish (10 lb)

  1. 1Mix one 10 lb bag of Ardex Feather Finish with about 2 1/2 quarts (2.4 L) of water — for smaller batches, use 2 parts powder to 1 part water by volume.
  2. 2Mix to a smooth, lump-free, pancake-batter consistency with a margin trowel or drill and paddle.
  3. 3Apply with a trowel to fill gouges, seams, and low spots, feathering the edge to a true zero — that’s where the name comes from.
  4. 4One 10 lb bag covers roughly 300 sq ft as a thin skim coat, or about 16.7 sq ft at a full 1/4" thickness — use whichever matches how thick your patch needs to be.
  5. 5It’s self-drying (it doesn’t need to air-cure like a standard patch compound), so you can typically install your new flooring in as fast as 15–20 minutes once it’s dry to the touch.
  6. 6Sand lightly if needed once dry for a perfectly flat transition before your floor covering goes down.

FAQ

How do I know if I need a patch compound or a full self-leveling pour?

Small gouges, seams, and low spots (under about 1/4") are a job for a patch/skimcoat compound. A subfloor that’s sloped, or has low spots across a large area, needs a self-leveling underlayment that pours and finds its own level. Ask us if you’re not sure which your floor needs.

How long before I can install flooring over it?

Cure time depends on the product and your new floor covering — check Ardex Feather Finish (10 lb)’s bag for the exact window, and always confirm before laying flooring over a fresh pour.
