Re: [papercreters] Making papercrete really waterproof



Tasha,

Thanks, duckduckgo.com'd it and no near local suppliers.
Spoke to a young lady from GlobalIndustial and she has already sent me product and spec sheets.
Have several applications for products.
We want to use earth bag construction with petrified Hession, some paper Crete in underground house construction.

Have no idea but sounds wonderful.
How much does it cost, how is it applied and under what conditions is it applied, what are the testing methods that assessed the durability  of this mixture?

Hi all,

has anybody tried UGL DriLok to waterproof papercrete? Is it working?

I found this:

Long available for industrial applications, crystalline waterproofing is now used in residential applications. It consists of a dry powder compound of Portland cement, very fine treated silica sand, and proprietary chemicals. Combining the product with water and applying it to the surface of concrete results in a catalytic reaction that forms several inches of non-soluble crystalline fibers within the pores and capillary tracts of concrete. This seals the concrete against the penetration of water or liquids from all directions.  UGL DryLok is one of these products. Supposedly this will work in either cured papercrete or in the wet mix itself. It's pricey, but said to be so effective that it's possible to make ponds with papercrete. If it will hold water without leaking, it should prevent water penetration.
