Gypcrete will work fine even on OSB.

Not this thread too. :cheesygri

Once I built this floor that needed to be floor leveled. Now before any one says WTF. :cheesygri My floor was perfectly level well near close.(you now by the same standards as Stabila LOL) I put a wood floor in restaurant remodel that was slab on grade with a sunken slab floor in the middle. Filling in the middle. Some chinese theme. It was actually a exact copy of a restaurant layout in China. And now it's a mini-casino. The first time our labours did the floor leveling. Not so good luckily it scrapped up good after it dried. Next we used a pro He said the reason ours sucked was because water was used. He use some kind of Milk stuff. Not cow milk either. But that mix came out smooth and solid.

What type of finished flooring will be installed over top of the leveler? Will it be glued, floated, fastened, ect.? There are much better products to use than gypcrete for this.

They sell floor leveling compound at home depot/lowes.

I have been using Mapei Plani/Patch. Not all compounds will allow you to go a 1/2" thick. Some need a primer.
