IMO best way to go as you have a monolithic application. With zip, you still rely on contractor to hit every single penetration, and that depends a lot more on eye sight and human error. At least with this, it is much more obvious what is not covered. Also have one system, not a bunch of different applications tied together.
Did some one poly-wall Brian Long? Cause his shirt matches perfectly...
+tommydjohnsonjr I know, he laughed at that later
Was nice to see the follow up from the previous video's foundation work.
Matt, can you follow up with Brian once this house is complete? I'd love to see the finished product
+Shane Hebert good idea
Yes would love to see completed home
Don't forget to secure and cover as much as you can at your build sites, flooding and damaging winds are on the way from the hurricane! I'm using heavy chains and cable locks to keep items from floating off or becoming projectiles.
For how much this product costs, I would go with Prosoco's Cat 5 instead. Even direct contractor's pricing for BB 2400 is absurd and there's no middleman. Yowza this stuff is super expensive.
I like how his shirt compliment with wall color
I'm building materials supplier from the Lake Placid, NY area.
I enjoy your videos and how tight you're building homes but I haven't seen any videos on indoor air quality and how you're ventilating the moisture and other air contaminants from inside the super tight homes. Are you using ERV/HRV systems? Other mechanical ventilation systems? How are you venting the heat and moisture from your attics?
Can you point me to prior videos on these topics or cover them in the future? Thanks
+Jay Ward Jay, very glad to have you watch my videos. I haven't covered those topics in recent months, but I've got a lot of older videos addressing that specifically. Check out my archives. Lots of good videos I've made over the years on that topic
About $100 per gallon covers about 100sq per gallon. Kind of expensive but seems like a great product
ryn76 $239 per 5-gallon bucket or around $50 per gallon at their online shop.
The 2300 and 2400 are above grade products (blue color).
Below grade the ‘Home Stretch Liquid Waterproofing Membrane’ (gray color) should be used, or am I missing something here?
If doing ICFs, then the pink - red color is used.
Sound Like a great product. Can it be used on a CBS wall and then apply a stucco over top? This may even work on the exterior walls for sealing the home for air leaks. Thoughts?
I'd like you see Brian do a house with Tyvek Fluid Applied. He said he per this on at 80 mils. Tyvek goes on at 30. Less product so less cost and shinkage. It also sticks to concrete.
Can this be used over cheap OSB? Approved for Florida?
Can polywall be used on the roof and over zip r sheathing??
NO ONE ANSWERS THIS QUESTION
Matt can this product be use in a roof before installation of any roof type?
NO ONE ANSWERS THIS QUESTION !!!
This looks just like the water proofing in shower in fact there's a blue one just like this I think is Mapei!
I am not in the industry, but how do the economics work out? Labor vs material or other relationships.
One benefit to the fluid applied is once it is on the wall, it never comes off. So you don't need more material and more labor when the wind blows too hard. Also, this has superior air barrier and waterproofing characteristics.
For twice the price?
Near the end Matt you said, "you can use this in any climate. It's vapor permeable"
Then you went on to say, "we're really looking for that super air tightness. Cause air brings in humidity and that can really cause problems"
These two statements are contradictions.
Either it's vapor permeable or it's not. I'm confused by your contradiction. Did you accidentally say, "it's vapor permeable?"
Is this product a vapor barrier or not???
I think it's an important distinction Matt.
The reason I ask is because I live near the Arctic Circle. It is crucial in this environment to know for sure. I plan to insulate with polystyrene foam 12 inch continuous. An airtight structure that uses heat recovery ventilation. At minus 40 or 50 degrees vapor will want to move from indoors to outdoors through the 12 inch styrofoam. Somewhere within that thickness the vapor will condense and experience freezing before it can escape to the outside environment. This will destroy the structure of the foam. Interior continuous Poly sheeting seems the only solution I've discovered so far.
I ask about this convenient paint-on membrane because it is crucial to know if vapor can pass it as a membrane.
@Adolfo Rodriguez ...
Dehumidifier is not a solution because there can be absolutely no penetration of air from indoors into the insulation material. Winter is long and once started it stays well below minus 20 degrees. Occasionally reaching minus 50. Meaning within the insulation material, there will be a location consistently at freezing temperature. That layer will continually build ice crystals from any supply of air fed to it. Heheheee, you have to see it to believe it.
The air/vapor barrier must be impenetrable.
Even heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) will become clogged with ice after a few hours. And must cycle on and off to allow the ice to periodically melt and drain. So that there can be ventilation between indoor/outdoor air.
These temperature ranges are almost like living on mars.
-Adolfo Rodriguez ... the building codes for Yukon Territory about a dozen years ago began requiring airtight construction methods. Typically, builders here use double framing system. Either 2x6 or 2x8 structural wall. Insulated with batting. Then on the indoor surface a continuous poly air/vapor barrier with acoustical sealant on joints and other openings to create a continuous airtight barrier.
The next interior wall is framed on top of the vapor barrier. Usually using 2x4 studs. In this cavity all the plumbing and electrical is run. And usually also insulated. Ending up with a 10 inch insulated wall. The continuous vapor barrier safely sandwiched between the 2x6 and 2x4 walls. Because the building is now airtight, mechanical ventilation is required in the form of a HRV system. An HRV works like a heat exchanger, recovering heat from outgoing air and applying that heat to the incoming air.
That's the typical new construction here.
I was going for something novel using 12 inch continuous styrofoam. And may still have to resort to using poly sheets on the inside to provide that necessary air/vapor barrier.
@@24emerald When he said air brings in humidity he's talking about leaks, not the fluid applied product.
Hey Matt: What is more bammer? Check Time at 4.26
Can this also be used as interior vapor barrier?
Is there any issue spray-foaming the inside sheathing when BB is used on the exterior?
How does it handle Cold-Hot climates like Canada?
When you make the house that air tight, you need an air exchanger to keep fresh air in the house. What else are you going to do to help with the air quality. Living inside a zip lock bag is not good.
+Jameson Cross build tight, ventilate right. Totally agree. Check out my videos on the systems I use in my homes for fresh, filtered, measured air.

This looks like a good option to seal up the house when my son puts new siding on his home.... probably with Hardy siding. What would you recommend regarding window flashing when the old siding is off?
Thanks
How does this work in a cold cabinet?
compare this to DUPONT™ TYVEK®
FLUID APPLIED WB+™
Would this be compatible with SIPS ?
Any idea what the perm rating would be at 60-mil thickness?
so vapor permeable..... how do the SIPS folks (OSB) like the liquid-applied systems. I know some prefer roofing felt over even tyvek etc.
Can this membrane be used on ICF?
Why is the duh guy on the scaffold not using a roller screen?
Do you feel this is a superior method compared to the Zip System? I would think that added labor for this wouldn't allow it to succeed the Huber walls
+Scott Kelly both are very good systems. There are pluses and minuses to both and every house is different. Thanks for watching
Matt Risinger great channel! Thanks for all the info. You need an HGTV show man.
+Dave Collette thanks Dave! This IS my TV show!
Can u use this product in bricks
They really should make it silver reflective color
How do you attach whatever siding you go with without puncturing the nice seal this product makes? Just wondering. Like your videos a lot.
guintube He said masonry tiles over stucco brown coat. So, no puncturing there.
Thanks...would love to see the final results sometime....
Wil H The stucco brown coat is NOT applied directly to the sheathing. It is applied to wire lath, which has to be fastened to the sheathing. Thus creating punctures. Whether fluid applied or peel and stick, these punctures can pose a problem on membranes. Best to have the membrane self-sealing.
Brian Long wore the wrong color shirt today! Haha
So it's been a year, how does this stuff hold up? Why did he stop at the block/foundation? Wouldn't it be best to run it all the way down? And will this work on ICF's?
It’s not UV stable and must be covered.
Oh yes on the ICF
Why not use zip ?
do thay sell for colorado
What about breathability is this dry rot city.
How does this compare to Monoflex.com they seem to have a few much better options..as it was invented in Montreal Canada for tougher climates and they are now available in the US?!?
+dlmzg i'm not familiar with that option
I'd say the price is the biggest reason not to use it.
Monoflex products are not vapor permeable as far as I can see.
For average middle class or just above that this product is way to expensive. I feel these companies only create products like these for commercial and rich people. Needs to be a product just as good for middle class people who can afford it.
Someone please introduce this man to undershirts or bench pressing.
This dude is proof positive that goofy nerds rule the world....unless they are Nationalists...We nationalists require you to have at least ONE cool trait...just one.
