What are the differences between wet, dry and rainscreen systems?
The most common application for Reynobond calls for a wet-seal system in which joints between panels are filled with silicone caulk (wet). Wet seal systems put the water line “outside” the panel. Dry seal systems incorporate gaskets, caulk, extrusions, painted metal strips and combinations of these. They typically are used when a reveal is desired, will require a drain network and may allow water “behind” the panel. Rainscreens are a façade, and put an air barrier between the panel system and structural wall.
