From manufacturer:
To seal the floor, the whole floor area should be grouted with a nominal 6:1 sharp sand/cement mix as soon as possible after the fixing of floor joist/beam and blocks are completed. This should be done by brushing the grout over the floor with a stiff broom (after the surface has been well ‘wetted’) so that the grout penetrates into the joints (block to block & block to joist/beam) to provide a rigid construction

Should the 6:1 sand/cement mix be dry or should i add in water to make into a slurry? From the above i am thinking dry?

Have contacted the manufacturer but they are closed until monday, i was hoping to get the grouting completed this weekend.
