HydroFlash® LA
There should be no reason for origami when doing exterior wall flashing details. HydroFlash LA, a liquid-applied flashing, is the perfect solution when sealing geometrically challenging areas. HydroFlash® LA is designed for exterior flashing of rough openings, transitions, and seams as part of a high-performing air and water management system. The best areas to utilize a liquid-applied flashing are when you need to fill imperfections, penetrations, or seal difficult areas.
HydroFlash® LA Features & Benefits
- Use for challenging details in exterior insulation applications, including geometrically complex areas
- Creates superior air sealing details
- Use to create monolithic sill flashing & prevent leaks
- Cure time is only 6 hours with 20-40 mil thickness
Tips for Installing HydroFlash LA
- Load your applicator tool, such as a caulk gun, before making your cut in the film, and add the applicator tip for less mess
- Spackle and putty knives work to provide a clean, smooth finish
- Less is more – the thicker you put the product on, the less vapor permeability it has
