I would have fiberglassed the outside so that the block does not become
saturated with water. Once that happens anything that is adhered to the
block will probably release over time.
If you want to patch a leak in a boat you do not do it from the inside. (
omitting temp fixes )
Saying this what are the odds the wall can be come saturated with water? If
good then it might be time for a French drain.
Thinset works well adhering to concrete products. Fiberglass,,,, have not a
clue. I would guess poorly.
