ThoroSeal.


Have a nice week...

Help keep down the world population...have your partner spayed or
neutered.


Once again Thoroseal is not appropriate as it does not retain any
elastomeric properties. It is also not appropriate under constant
hydrostatic head as the primary waterproof barrier. I have never seen it
spec'd for subgrade exterior waterproofing by professionals.

Even the makers of Thoroseal do not claim that is elastomeric.

If you're going to do it, do it right.
