Now there's a better solution to the age old problem of moisture protection in masonry construction. It's PERM-A-BARRIER® Wall Flashing from Grace Construction Products. PERM-A-BARRIER Wall Flashing's unique green color and imprinted logo easily differentiate it from other flashing types, PERM-A-BARRIER is a 40 mil membrane - 32 mils of pliable and highly-adhesive rubberized asphalt compound, completely and integrally bonded to an 8 mil, high density, crosslaminated polyethylene film. Together they provide two strong, flexible waterproofing layers. And many other benefits as well:
It's tough. Fights back against punctures, tears, slices - it even heals itself.
The high density polyethylene film is strong and thick to resist puncturing and slicing. And because it consists of multiple cross-laminated layers, it has the tensile strength to resist tearing as well. The rubberized asphalt is selfhealing to resist leaks from minor cuts. It also self-seats around fastener holes put through the membrane.
It's self-adhering: sticks to itself and the substrates.
PERM-A-BARRIER's rubberized asphalt layer self-adheres to concrete, block, steel or sheathing - even on vertical surfaces and around details. And taps are never a problem either. just overlap and press to seal, for instant, positive laps. No extra adhesive is required. If the surface is too dirty or dusty for good adhesion at initial touch, simply apply PERM-A-BARRIER Surface Conditioner.
It's easy to apply. Cost-effective, too.
PERM-A-BARRIER can be applied simply, without a lot of additional time-consuming steps like cutting reglets or behind-the-sheathing details. Term bars and fasteners are not required. Simply peel off the release sheet, cut and trim with a utility knife. It fits easily into your project schedule, too. There's no need to have flashing installed far in advance and left exposed to possible damage. It can even be installed as part of a prefabricated wall panel operation, with on-site finishing and tie-ins - saving time and money.
