Does Hydro-Seal need to be applied over dry surfaces or can they be damp?

The surface it is applied to MUST be absolutely dry, but once you apply H-S, it dries quickly and will seal any damp wet areas FAST.

This is not waterproofing specification. In use at the place where rain hits, you need to waterproof. (I did the seal to the junction etc. with silicon)

I don't like the application of Hydro-Seal 75 as a waterproof base before tiling over Drywall. This is not a tried and true application of Hydro-Seal 75 so we do not have a record of successful applications for this application. Hydro-Seal 75 is a very unique material and is used to seal plywood and particle board subfloors to make them seamless. By mixing Hydro-Seal 75 with Portland Cement(50-50 ratio) a waterproof skim coat is created to be used on all the seams and a fiberglass tape is laid into the skim coat and then skimmed again to a smooth finish. Then two coats of Hydro-Seal 75 would give you a waterproof base to apply tile. For a bathroom I would prefer cement board designed for wet areas certainly not particle board, but no experience applying over Drywall. Rick Bernard Northern Industries Inc.

We use the wet/dry vac if there is a lot of standing water, we have never had water leak over the edges. If it's just a little water, it evaporates. Great not having water all over the garage floor!

According to their website, Yes. O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust and debris from penetrating for reliable performance in all environments.

My experience with the spray-on Mod Podge is that it dries very fast and only leaves a thin layer on the sprayed surface. Have not seen it actually soak into any hard surface. I would say it is safe as long as it's applied on the outside a thin layer at a time (Spray first layer, let dry, then second and so on....). Most acrylic sealers are nontoxic. Hope this helps!

Not necessary to seal at all. I used this as a dining fly during a down pour in the White Mountains...kept dry...ready to perform right out of the box.

I only used it on painted drywall. It works well until there's too much moisture on the wall.

I would think that to be a great use of the product, When it dries, it is a bonded coating. however there would be an "open time" to when it would still be damp...24 hour seems to be a good drying time.graphite, will not collect dirt like "WD40" would

I have not tried to seal a wet bag. I used a paper towel to clean/dry the inside of the bag where I'm going to make the seal. Works fine.

Possibly get liquid in the sealing compartment. Be sure it is completely clean and dry

as long as there's no large amount of moisture present. as this is not a sealed unit

Yes! The ability to work in damp location is a bonus. It will work just as well in a dry location! Great quiet fan!

Yes it is damp rated. I'm not sure about wet-rated, but from the way it was constructed with rubber covers in critical areas, I think it might be. I can't see how water could get to it.

make sure mounting area is clean and dryAdd a little moisture to the cupMounting surface can't be porous or rough

Yes, but it must be dry. Not suitable for wet or damp situations. Check your local building code also to be sure your installation is compliant.

In must cases yes. If what you paint will be exposed to rain or other wet conditions I would suggest sealing.
