Because Bad Online Advice is not reserved for English Speaking People Only. It takes a while to translate but the process install for Resisto leaves a lot to be desired. What caught my eye was the plywood walls first and roller. The rest of the install went down hill from there.

Installing Resisto



The key info in Jim's signature is the second line. Those of you without a profile here can not see this. But you should know.​

That article didn't follow the manufacturer's instructions http://www.resisto.ca/wp-content/uploads/GI_Trousse_Base_Douche_Fr_An.pdf by failing the first step - putting in a preslope before the membrane.

The available documentation does not list that it passed any ANSI tests, but it does list passing the following (not familiar with these Canadian test standards) CCMC 13562-R & CCMC 13288-L in this document http://www.resisto.ca/wp-content/uploads/FT_Membrane_Etancheite_Base_An.pdf

The stuff is 60-mils thick...twice that of John's favorite, which he often touts as being a wonderful thing. Google toolbar can automatically translate most web pages, making that task a no-brainer; even something John can do!

No comment on whether the product is good, or not, and until it passes tests approved in the USA, not likely useful anywhere except Canada.

The bottom line, your best bet is to always read and understand how the manufacturer says to use their products, and, to understand what it was designed to do, and if that is what you want.
