" The engineering is done this way it's done with an eight millimeter board when the two boards come together. -- And they lock on all four sides as you can see the -- put its --"
" That's the best part about what about it getting absorbing moisture and swelling up we have a 25 year wear -- in moisture warranty."
" And because of that we have."
" The stabilizer what we have Melanie underneath. -- plus we have moisture wear layer underneath OK and you get it in all sorts of 125 different colors that they would doing Bianco for the barn this and what we're pretty proud.

" Finalized until it makes it one uniform vapor barrier throughout the entire space yeah and it saves us from -- tape it's a pretty nice."
