destructive vs gentle.3.

Minimal moisture sensitivity, the quality products are extremely resistant to almost anything you can throw at it.

Besides the obvious things like kitchenette and bathroom, the city of LA requires you seal the slab with a moisture barrier and that you insulate the crap out of it because of a California title 23 requirement.

The author was just saying that many other types of paint could end up trapping moisture inside the brick which would cause it to deteriorate over time, that's all.

Is this a high moisture area like a basement floor or just a concrete slab in a relatively dry climate?

The first one left the place imaculate (100% security depost refund) and this last one had leaks occuring for months that she never reported, and actually moved the moisture alarms without thinking to give us a call and notify us, as well as kids with permenant markers, nail polish left on the countertops, sheetrock damage, carpet trashed, oven gross, you get the picture.  

I also work with John Edwards that does my termite/moisture inspections.  

Charging about $375 for visual, moisture testing, thermal imaging and air or swab sampling in up to 4 areas.

Drywall sucks water so unless you have a moisture meter it can be hard or impossible to tell what is saturated. 

My first question on the forums (be gentle)!
