Self-leveling compound is very useful material that can be used in a lot of ways in a lot of places. However, this material is not ideally suited for every DIY project you might have in mind. \
Self-leveling compound is meant to be used on horizontal surfaces, such as floors, and should not be applied to vertical walls or to sloped areas. You should also not use self-leveling compound anywhere that harsh chemicals or heavy machinery will be used, as this material is not durable enough to stand up to this. \
