Subfloor Preparation: The substrate must in general be even, totally dry, clean, free from cracks and physically sound. The surface should also be slightly textured. If applicable, it must meet the requirements of local standards or codes of practice. If necessary, it should be professionally prepared for laying. A primer is typically not needed. If the sub floor is problematic the use of a primer like Bona D501, R540 or R590 can improve it. Uneven floors should be levelled with Bona H600, H610 (filling of holes), or H660.
