Waterproofing the Basement Using Tremco Tuff N Dri

[@tjbjornson154]

"mil" is a plastic thickness measurement like "gauge" is a wire size measurement. It isn't really a inches or metric number.

[@BealyGood]

@@tjbjornson154 yay!! Finally, someone told me what it is. Instead of just commenting. Thanks.

[@scottwheeler2494]

​@@BealyGoodmil is a thousandth of an inch. Google it. Used to measure thickness of films, paint, coatings and all kinds of other things.

[@koerther4037]

1 mil is .001 inches

Huh? Like the other guy posted, 1 mil is .001 It's not just a plastic thickness measurement

New to channel for a couple of months now. Went back to when you first broke ground on the house, I'm glad I did. I'll never criticize what you're doing or how you're doing it. I'm a retired electrician, not a general contractor, and have enjoyed every minute I've watched. And that sprayer seems to do a hell of a job. Quit worrying about anything anyone says. They have probably never driven a nail in their lifetime. Wish I was physically able to volunteer cause there is a lot to learn even if you never plan to build with these types of products. Thanks

[@charleswelch249]

That's a much better way than I had to do it years ago. We had to heat up the waterproof. Then pump it to the location and aim at the concrete. While right behind you. Several people were taking a paint roller and spreading it before it hardened back up. Love your new technologies. From watching your progress I'm thinking you're using a water-based sealent. In the past, it was a hard tar that was used. Today's technologies are much better on the body and environment. Great video, Jeff, and thanks for sharing the information and experience with us all.

Glad you got hooked up with Tremco… I hauled every gallon of the base material to their Cleveland and Toronto plants for years. Good people, and a GREAT product!

[@frankharley3731]

Handy little tip to keep that sprayer always ready to spray between lengthy spray periods, the major key is to overly clean after use, should 'go without saying' but to make sure it ALWAYS starts when needed, at the end of the day, leave it running and shut off the gas so it can empty the fuel bowl to shut it off. It'll start every time, been doing that with my 25-year old power-washer since new, three pulls fires right up. when needed again, add fresh gas in the tank which adds fresh fuel to the carb, 😉👌🏻it's guaranteed to start every time, no matter how long it sat.

[@ronaldheit196]

That's exactly what Darren Mustie1 tells his subscribers. He has one of the most entertaining and informative channels on KZbin. Along with Watch Wes Work. Darren is a hoot to watch because of the way he talks to us like we're actually there and the way he pokes fun at himself. Wes could easily be a top notch vocational school instructor.

[@frankharley3731]

@@ronaldheit196 Small gas engines like this are notorious for not starting after sitting for an extended period of time if old gas is left in the carburetor. The last day on the job right before prolonged storage, allowing it to run for a few moments with the gas feed switched off instead of shutting down using the kill switch (I always use the gas shut method) uses up all of the little bit of fuel in the tiny bowl. They'll start every time!

Geoff, just a small tip. If you cut tie wrap straps just behind the head where it goes thru the head you can reuse them. Why buy new unless you have to when you can use them again. In my profession as an arcade and pinball games mechanic/electronics tech I use bags of them. Use recycling them saves me a little chuck of change and adds less plastic to landfills.

First time I have ever seen them here in our area, guess a lot of people are going to those now ?? Or they could have been bringing them to you ?? Naa.. To far from here to NC. !! lolol...

[@BealyGood]

Yeah, heat is no joke. I was surprised too! Thanks 😊

[@MUDNROCKS]

I like the idea of a spray on membrane but I think its really important to avoid missed coverage and bridging, I would like to see troweled sealant into all the open joints (no visible gaps), swept and cleaned off footings and a sealed wall to footing joint with a full concave trowelled fillet before spraying out to the footing edge, and perhaps use a masking board to get the top sprayed edge sharp and tidy. I have chemical grout sealed commercial buildings that had tanking leaks between the tidy slabs and floor slabs and from experience know that water will find any weakness in the waterproofing system sooner or later so it is imperative to think like you are creating a boat not a box, otherwise it sinks.

[@BealyGood]

That’s great info. We didn’t focus too much on the block-to-footing connection as my inside slab is 6” above that point.

Grounding the barrel: More detail please. Is it a static charge build up from where? Thinking you could run it to a temporary ground rod , maybe a wire to the the pond. Grounds and Neutrals are commonly not done correctly nor understood from my experience as OEM equipment designer. Maybe there is a wiring sketch schematic in the sprayer manual. A reference to pdf manual might answer my question.

[@BealyGood]

I have no idea. I assumed it was because the feed tube goes in the barrel and there was a potential for a spark 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@davidmiller6010]

DANG! Wish this was around when I was doing PM work! My earth mover wouldn't do it. My concrete guy wouldn't do it. My framers wouldn't do it. Needed to get done. I could do it myself way faster than I could hire someone, so time to dive in. Mason brushes, rollers, duct taping sticks to things for extensions, yeah that's me. Then bedding 6 mil poly into the wet goo- that was fun. Concocted a plan to nail the poly to the top of wall (TOW) through some furring strips, so I could just pull the poly into the wet foundation coating while it was as wet as possible. One day the boss, (owner of the company) came by and asked how I was going to get the poly bedded. After I told him, he said he didn't understand, but was going to run home real quick, change his clothes and join me to get-er-done! (Bottom of the hill about 1-1/2 miles to his house). By the time he got back, I was bedding the last 15-20 feet of poly onto the wall. He couldn't believe I got that done so well, and smooth too! Little deeds like that turn into massive R E S P E C T rather quickly, and add up over time. Sorry I got a little off-track there, but anyway, sure would've been nice to shoot the waterproofer on back in my day. (Can't believe I just said 'back in my day').

[@ohiomoto]

I assumed the exterior t-straps would be removed before waterproofing. I've seen other ICF contractors remove them with a cutoff wheel after the concrete has cured. I know that are galvanized and covered, but wouldn't be a potential failure point? I'm curious, not a contractor. Thanks!
