Description
Description
F. Ball Stopgap 1200 Pro is a high-performance two-part smoothing compound developed for preparing sound internal subfloors before installing new floor coverings. Supplied as a 20kg powder with a matching liquid component, it delivers excellent flow, rapid drying and an exceptionally smooth finish.
One of the biggest advantages of Stopgap 1200 Pro is that it can often be applied directly over well-bonded adhesive residues, including bitumen residues and carpet tile tackifiers, without the need for priming. This can significantly reduce preparation time on refurbishment projects while providing a strong, smooth base ready for wood flooring, LVT, vinyl, carpet and other resilient floor coverings.

Professional Advice
Stopgap 1200 Pro is one of our preferred smoothing compounds for refurbishment work where existing adhesive residues are sound, well bonded and suitable for overcoating. It can save significant preparation time while still delivering a high-quality finish.
If repairs are required before levelling, use Stopgap 400 Repair for deeper repairs or Stopgap Micro Rapid for feather edging and small surface imperfections.
