Stauf 960 Adhesive

I am researching for one my customer who has purchased Patagonian Rosewood for his flooring. This is a engnieered wood. The shop where he brough the wood recommends him to use Stauf 960 since it is glue and vapor absorver. I have never used this material before.. So looking for the ideas like - Is it really good ? If yes, how expensive it would be ?

Your thoughts ?

Any idea why it is so expensive ? Does it really act as a water vaporizer and glue ? How much I would need for 700 Sq ft area ? Any one used this material before ?

They are the only one marketing there adhesive, as a one application adhesive and moisture barrier.

960 is all marketing, as I have seen it not suppress slightly high moisture emissions.
