Understanding the Waterproofing System

You need to know that in the construction of houses, concrete is usually dominant, which is hard, and is prone to not being impermeable to water because concrete has pores. Therefore, the concrete surface, especially the parts that are directly exposed to water, must be coated with waterproofing, which is usually carried out in stages or has a comprehensive waterproofing system in order to more fully protect the building from leaking and seeping in a short time.

In the use of waterproofing or leak-proof coatings, we have also heard of waterproofing spray products. As the name itself suggests, of course it can be guessed that its use is by spraying. But how effective is the use of this waterproofing spray as a leak-proof coating?
