For years, the question of waterproofing from the inside has dogged Peter. He kept hearing about all sorts of coatings that could “negative-side” waterproof, but didn’t know how to compare the anecdotes to building science. In this session, Peter will cut through the hype and the misdirection of standardized testing and figure out what works, what doesn’t, and why. Bring in your own favorite waterproofing product: we will see if it stands up to the Wingnut Water Test!
