How does Flexstone / Tufflex compare?
FLEXSTONE / TUFFLEX is an ECO-FRIENDLY deck membrane that lasts a lifetime. In terms of cost, the standard Flexstone / Tufflex system is comparable to a ten-year heavy duty vinyl but lasts at least twice as long.
No other product stands up to our attractive and indestructible sundeck coating. After a quick comparison, it is easy to see why water-based liquid coatings are the future of safe and affordable waterproofing.

| Another noticeable difference between Flexstone / Tufflex and other urethanes is that Flexstone goes on thick. In normal circumstances Tufflex is applied at a thickness of 90-115 mils. That's over twice as thick as competing urethanes. In the world of waterproofing that's the difference between comfort and thousands of dollars in potential damages. | |
