I watched a YouTube video where a guy promotes a cork “undercoat” on an existing internal wall and then skims the top.
He implies that the cork is insulation.

The cork is very thin and looks to be granular mixed with some kind of binder. The cork comes in a tub with a bottle of gunk that is diluted 1:3.

My question is -
How the heck does this work? I get that even thin cork tiles make a floor feel warmer but the wall cork seemed way too thin and not sure that the plaster would help.

Anybody used this?
I don’t need it, just being nosey
 
It's talked about in podcasts and there are courses to learn.
Supposed to be good
