PRODUCTS exteriors EDITORS' CHOICE Building wrap with detachable rainscreen Slicker HP: * Building wrap with rainscreen * Rainscreen feature can be removed * 20-yr. system warranty Slicker HP building wrap provides moisture protection for exterior walls.

When installed with the company's flashing accessories, the product has a 20-yr. system warranty.
