Froth-PAK 12 (1.75 PCF) Sealant

I let these foam packs go beyond the use date but they still worked great. They are not cheap for the amount of foam. The control of application is good. I have tried some other brands where the cutoff flow valve just squeezes the tubing. I did not find that these worked as well as the control nozzle on the Froth Pak. Though the safety did get in the way occasionally; you just have to be deliberate in how you squeeze the trigger. Much better than the cans available at your local hardware store. I will definitely purchase more. I used these paks to insulate around the metal duct boots of my hvac system. They were sweating from humid air in the attic meeting the metal of the ceiling duct boots. The original insulation was in poor condition and would not have been easy to replace while straddling the ceiling joists. This product was a perfect solution. Some people have commented negatively about the coverage. Well if you have considerable square footage to cover this is not the product for you. You need a larger foam pak or another typed insulation. But if you have a small area and need some control over the application this will work.

This is the second time I've tried this product. The blue side stopped flowing after a short period so I ended up wasting about 2/3 of each can since it wouldn't mix. I've used it before and sometimes it can work but pressure is too low and there's nowhere near the advertised volume. Since it didn't mix properly, the job wasn't completed and now I have another one to clean it up since the blue part didn't flow. To add insult to injury, I had to maneuver into a very tight crawl space and travel about 60 feet to get to the place that needed to be sealed. Do not buy this product. It's horrible.

I really don't get the negative reviews for this product. I thought it was awesome! Easy to get started. Just screw in the canisters, clip in a mixing nozzle and you're ready to go. You will need to get your plan in order before you start. The nozzle will clog up in 30 seconds if you stop. They give you a few extra nozzles if you do have to stop. One coat seems to set up within a minute at about 1 1/2" thick. You don't have to move fast and I don't recommend going back over what you've laid down until it fully expands and sets. I used it for sound proofing and have been very impressed with the results.

I bought 3 of these kits to air-seal a band board around a second floor addition. The spray gun worked perfectly for me and after a very short learning curve I carefully applied the stuff and had enough to get the whole job done. (Now I have 2 sprayers left and no cans of A and B.). This was just for laying down 1/4 inch of foam to seal cracks and gaps. Fiberglass insulation went in after. These are good for rather small jobs. If you expect to fill a wall you will be technically and economically disappointed. I could have bought one gun and multiple refill cans, I suppose. For me the math was about the cost avoidance of a separate trip by an insulation contractor. Wear your safety gear! This is a commercial product and you need to protect yourself.

Like everyone says, this doesn't cover much. I bought a 200 pack later from Lowes and that has way more material. But this was a good practice for me as I've never used the two part foam products.

Let me preface by stating I've bought and used the Froth Pak 200 and was very impressed by the product. So I had an understanding of this product, how to use the spray gun, and how to apply. Packaging was fine, all parts were included. But instantly once I squeezed the trigger I knew that this was not the same quality product as the Froth Pak 200. Product is advertised to provide 12 square feet of product at 1" thick, IF all the rules are followed. I heated the cans to 70 ish degrees and shook them vigorously prior to starting to spray. My project was to simply spray a 1" x 1" bead of foam on top of my foundation wall to seal my rim joist sill plate. Sounds simple enough.....wrong. In theory, if you were to lay one continuous bead, you should get roughly 144 Lf. I'm not naive, I know we don't live in a perfect world so I wasn't expecting that amount. I was expecting maybe half of that..... What I got out of the can was a sloppy mess of barely 16' (with the last 6' being an inaccurate mixture and providing brittle foam). Dow needs to stop taking peoples money and remove this product. Use the $45 you were going to spend on this to either help pay for the Froth Pak 200 (which worked great for me) or go buy a Great Stuff Pro gun and spray foam. Extremely disappointed in what Dow provided for $45.

Dow advertises this product as the next step up from the off the shelf "GreatStuff" spray foam. But it won't fill gaps much larger than 1" despite the labeling, and won't stick on a vertical surface. The gun gets really gunked up fast as well. Not worth the price.

I bought this to repair RV compartment boxes that were severly damaged by a tire explosion. the factory boxes are sprayed with a 2lb foam and i wanted to match that with the box repair. i read the bad reviews before purchasing but have worked with spray foam before and figured id give it a try. well i read directions shook both cans excessively and made sure they where warm 90 degrees plus. and held them UPSIDE down while spraying. The results where amazing came out perfect!! i I had plenty of foam for my application and was able to do some extra areas. Would buy again!!!

vraiment, pas bon .le pistole. ne funcionne pas bien ..

Coverage was terrible, not at all economical.
