For pours over 6 inches (150 mm) in depth Five Star® Grout should be extended with a clean, damp coarse aggregate meeting the requirements of ASTM C 33.

    When epoxy is used it is usually set at about 5mm thick and with about a 5-8 hour settle time so it has a long time to self level. With the West System.

    Looking at the spec above it appears to say it requires a min. of 25mm depth and you add water I would be wary of the shrinkage
