METALLIZED FLASHING

Description: This looks like brown tarpaper, and consists of two dark pieces of paper sandwiching a thin-gauge copper sheet.

Buying information: Use it on top of foundation walls as a termite shield. It is easier to handle and install and is more durable than aluminum.

How-to hint: Thread it over bolts protruding from the foundation and press it in place.
