You may be right. It does show the A tank and B tank as separate items. I'll have to check on price when I go down there.

It has to be 2 tanks. One tank is Polyols and the other is MDA. Not only do you need a coverall but be sure to use a respirator or at least a mask. Imagine inhaling and it expanding in your air way. If you are spraying under a house off the ground, use closed cell. In the walls or attic open cell is sufficient. There is a difference in price between the 2. Closed cell is a lot firmer than open cell. Have used this stuff called Iceyene Insulation in the 3 Antebellum house I have restored. Well worth the money.

In most applications that is about what I charge. The froth packs out put is about 2 lbs a min. My machine is rated @ 40 Lbs a min. I have referred people to froth/ tiger foam for small jobs where it does not get near my minimum charge of $800. I have also finished jobs where the home owner started with a DIY product and gave up. I could knock out a 20x20 room in 15 min. where as a DIY kit will take 5 hours.
My spray gun cost $2700, the kit gun cost $5 The kit pressure is low like 40 psi, My gun runs 1400-2200 psi. I do have some pink foam boards in my garage attic that were given to me so I see all sides of this.
Sent you a PM through your website.

Stopped by Home Depot today, to see what they carried and price. They have Touch 'n Foam which is manufactured by Dow. 600 BF A & B tanks, Hoses, spare nozzles and safety gear is $735. Makes me wonder how many brand names DOW owns? :)

I knew more about the product than the kid working there. He had no idea what a "Board Foot" was.....he grew up learning only metric. :)
