For cost reference: I calculated that 3-1/2" R-13 batt insulation would run about 61¢ per ft². For this spray to reach R-13 value it would require 2.3 inches in depth. That would cost $1.92 per ft². So for walls that are 8 feet tall, the cost for batt insulation = $4.89 a linear foot. The cost for this spray foam = $15.38 per linear foot. (Actual cost depends on package purchased) Your mileage may vary. Thanks for the video.

BUT fiberglass batt is not a good idea for a metal shed due to condensation causing a mold problem. You also have to have studs to attach the batts to. I would recommend rigid foam sheets and glue them in place with this spray foam leaving a good space between sheets say 1 1/2 inches at least. It would leave you with a much cleaner looking job as well and WAY faster too. In answer to this video's question "doesn't that look great?" Not really.

I'm an ironworker, and we use these guns all the time and I'm gonna give you tip after you clean the gun initially leave the can attached to the gun let the acetone work on the remaining foam clinging to the inside the workings trust me it may appear its all out but it isn't let cleaner can on for at least 5 minutes and respray then when you take can off don't pull trigger to release pressure let that cleanerase in the gun another 5 minute then release these guns gradually clog up and will need to be broken down to clean properly but this will help prolong that

[@TaddyDigest]

Thank you for your knowledge. I appreciate you

[@raymondlemons7548]

@@jasong8377 I agree i am a union iron worker and use these bad bois all the time. Don't take the can off if there is product left in the can also. Just close the regulator.

[@kgmastodon7728]

Do not have moisture on your substrate, also wear the proper PPE, any moisture above 14% will more than likely lead to delamination issues, manufacturer will tell you 18 is the highest, a professional will tell you 14, high pressure or low pressure, you want your surface as dry as possible

Hi there Tad from NZ. Thanks for uploading a video with your own real experience on using a spray foam kit with cans. I have been looking to do the same kind of job and was wondering if the can approach was worth it. Great Video!

[@ryanlett587]

@@eagle17nz hey mate have you found a product similar to this in NZ?

[@mhernandezae86]

Thank you for this video. Only question I have is what is the final rigidity of the foam once its cured?

[@klaymoon1]

Great video! For a wooden ceiling, do you recommend to use the air chamber?

[@martrome7449]

It’s expensive but looks good quality

[@hankbray3790]

Great job thanks for all your hard work ✌️

[@TaddyDigest]

My pleasure!

[@StephenTinius]

What are you insulating, meaning what will be inside the shed? Will it have a heat source inside? If not, the air inside will rise or fall to the outside temperature. You might slow down the rise in temperature inside on a sunny summer day, but it will eventually be the same. And even if you have a heat source inside, the wooden supports will transfer the heat in or out, bypassing the foam insulation. Appreciate the time and effort to make the video and share your experience..

[@Easton21]

He literally says in the video

[@StephenTinius]

@@Easton21 Got it, thanks. My mind must have wandered away the first time through the video; I was multi-tasking a couple other chores.

[@twistedtech361]

thanks @asudavew for the math, LOL. I would factor in the ease of application, especially on the roof. Tad, have you tried using the Great stuff Professional ? I wonder if the tips would attach to that gun.

[@juliennecuccioslichko7592]

Thank you! Good DIY video. I'm trying to figure out if I want to do a scratch coat on my cabin under the R-19 fiberglass insulation. Any thoughts Taddy?

[@TaddyDigest]

It would create a nice solid barrier that's a good idea Thank you for watching the video i'm here to help

[@manuelherreros4609]

Hey great video and good product! My question is, can you use this spray foam to make a walking box, for 35 F temp to 41 F

[@billmoretz8718]

I did. But had professional apply it for those areas. If you need electrical service local codes may call for specific details. Also whatever you plan to cool with should be installed first as the foam will form a seal. Don't forget to cover up anything you don't want the foam inside of. It's about like using a power paint sprayer makes fine drops.

[@codyschwoch5451]

Just curious, did you use clothes sell insulation or open cell installation because if you’re doing your metal roof, you should think about the metal roof sweating and siding so you should probably use close sell insulation otherwise you’re just soaking up all that moisture and getting mold

[@TaddyDigest]

closed cell foam

[@bigdaddycain8561]

I was going to do this, and after seeing this, I have gladly decided not to. Thanks for showing us!

[@ShadowGamer10675]

Does it help create a moisture barrier if used on basements walls?

[@TaddyDigest]

yes

[@James-mv4tu]

Should you leave windows/doors open whilst the foam is curing I am also using this for a shed

[@TaddyDigest]

yes

[@brandonhahaj1820]

What kind of surface prep did you do? I have a conex container and just curious on how intense the surface cleaning needs to be. Thanks!

no can't be sprayed on roof it would deteriorate

​@@TaddyDigest the amount of foam you sprayed isn't going to insulate much.

Would you have even bid this job? Maybe, but for much more than he paid. This shed is not living space. It's just an airtight box for his solar equipment.

[@SeaBass-yj2lo]

@markstipulkoski1389 dude, I know. But as someone who did spray foam you would be surprised how many people do this kinda shit in their house and the chemicals don't fully react do to cold substrate and makes toxic/ carcinogenic insulation. That's not good in a shed or a bathroom additional or what have you. I even complimented the man because he makes top notch content. It's not like I'm bitching at him 😂 relax
