Finestop RA 

Finestop RA

FINESTOP RA is a ready-mixed flexible coating that is spray-, roller-, trowel- or brush-applied directly to approved wall substrates and functions as an air and water-resistive barrier. It provides excellent secondary moisture protection to Finestone Wall Systems and most other wall claddings. Finestop RA is listed in the ICC ESR-2186.
