  • Today I used Huber ZIP System Liquid Flash (‪@ZipSystemSheathing‬) to seal the edge of the sole plate in the addition. I kind-of dreaded this job because to do it right I needed to vacuum the entire joint then scrub and rinse it to get it perfectly clean. After that I dried the joint by moving a fan from area to area the rest of the day and overnight. With the joint clean and dry, I applied the Huber ZIP System Liquid Flash in about a 1/4" bead all the way around the room, and followed up by smoothing and pressing it into the joint with a tongue depressor.

    The fact that you built a whole add on to your house by yourself is awesome

      Thanks Cole! We actually built the house as well. Me my son and my friend Kevin who comments here occasionally -- built it 10 years ago. There are only a couple of videos though. 😟 With any luck I'll be building a woodshop soon -- maybe next year and capture the entire thing 😊

    The room is coming along pretty good. You have more patients to do that sealing than I do. Good work.

      , this was another one of those things I just didn't want to do. I'm real glad it's done though... it almost made me wish I was drywalling 😜

      -- I actually learned about the liquid flashing and other Zip System stuff from Matt Risinger: czcams.com/users/MattRisinger
      who is a fellow Texan. He has a great building channel. I never seen it used for this purpose before, but it seems to be working great so-far 😊

    I'm not sure that it showed, but there was a good deal of crud in the areas that were scrubbed. Because the walls were up for a couple of months before the roof went in -- and even then there were open window/door holes -- whenever it rained the water was trapped in the room area. This caused a lot of fine dirt, sawdust, etc. to collect in that area. Now it's all clean and sealed up. No worries 😊 The Liquid Flashing can be found here: amzn.to/38Q6JGh

    Why did you use the Zip liquid flashing vs. just using a caulk of some sort? Doesn't caulk waterproof it?

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  Před 3 lety

      This stuff sticks way better tan caulk, and is durable as hell. If I didn't use this though, I would have used a very high-end caulk like OSI Quad that is specifically designed for treated wood _and_ concrete.

  • @FreeRange1234
    @FreeRange1234 Před 2 lety +1

    did you do this on the outside too? Because if not, you might of just made a trap for water to stay under your sill plate.

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  Před 2 lety +1

      The outside is sealed differently from the inside, but it is sealed-up good.

  • @nickk05281982
    @nickk05281982 Před 3 lety

    im a bit confused why not clean with only water its actually a great solvent? soap is a great lubricant and if you were worried about sticking you might want to avoid it without washing the soap residue off

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  Před 3 lety

      Water is a pretty good solvent, but water + degreaser is far better 😊 It worked very well.

      I had a note to mention that but forgot all about it. No, there is not much to it. A very mild 'caulk-like' smell when it was going in, and it's gone completely now. Thanks for reminding me! 🙂
