Grip-Rite Window and Door Protector is a weather-resistant barrier made of tough woven high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and is recommended for installation on clean, dry surfaces. It is easy to install and comes in various roll sizes to suit jobsite needs. The product is lightweight, easy to handle, and allows moisture escape and prevents water intrusion. To ensure proper adhesion, roll the product onto the surface with continuous pressure. The layout of Grip-Rite ProWrap-SA should be established in advance to minimize waste and ensure proper watertightness and air tightness.
When installing Tyvek house wrap, follow these four easy steps to ensure optimal protection from the elements. Grip-Rite Fasteners are recommended for the installation of House-Wrap, and Grip-Cap® plastic is acceptable for the application. To install Tyvek house wrap on your own, add a quick grip clamp to a broom and use it to hold the roll up while adding the second higher layer.
In addition to commercial grade weather resistive barriers, Grip-Rite House-Wrap-E is coated on one side with LDPE. Tyvek® Housewrap can be applied horizontally or vertically over the face of the construction with the printed logo facing outwards. To ensure maximum coverage, follow building codes applicable to your geographical region and structure type.

I’m having a deja vu feeling:))) Then I realized that it wasn’t really so long ago when you were doing this on your home, racing showers. One gets accustomed to a better life so fast:))) God’s been with you throughout your build, giving you good ideas and enabling you to to it yourself (He did take a little break with the ladder episode, LOL). I truly enjoy perusal this stuff, especially when helping parents, that’s a special blessing:))
I like the house wrap dispenser you made! The detail on the windows is a good idea! I was always told to not tape the bottom of an overlapping sheet of wrap so that water can escape. Instead tape the top of the lower sheet to the sheeting to prevent water from getting behind it. Think of it as shingles on a roof and how water flows.
