Paul Hanratty is a technical representative for BASF Canada in their parking and restoration division. He reviews a thin-applied waterproofing job where the top coat exhibited randomly located dime sized failures all over the P1 level the parking garage. The P2 level of the garage was prepped and coated in the same way, by the same crew, but didn’t exhibit any failures. Moreover, more and more areas were failing as time went on. It was a problem that went on for over a year before the culprit became apparent. Paul details how he solved the issue and learned how to avoid the problem on future jobs.
