dear archiman,

these products are all over the place. just google them. or go on orkut. i dont have the info handy right now.

anyways, the most clever part of construction is by not using any of these chemicals.

just use proper materials and details to drain water out. trust me, if you have a bricjk with plaster in top, you need these chemicals because both brick and plaster suck water. but in india that ia the most conventional way of doing it.

also dense concrete if properly laid, compacted is waterproof.
