I went onto their website, www.fxsupply.com, and they say it is not currently availavle. They do, however, have another product called Foam Coat.

You might also check out StyroSpray, from
www.industrialpolymers.com

StyroSpray is a great product, but you have to have a place to spray it and also have the gun and wear a suit to use it. I am intrested in the idea of mixing small batches and being able to brush it on. I will see if I can get any more info on it and share. Thanks

I just called the company and spoke with the owner. He pretty much talked me out of buying it. Not a great sales pitch. lol

Are you talking about the StyroSpray, or the Foam Coat?

That Foam Coat sounded like a pretty neat product........and not hazardous at all.

Sorry Dale, I was referring to the Foam Coat. The owner described it as painting with oatmeal and said he wasn't sure I would like it. I am looking into a couple of other ideas. If I find some I like I will share.

I used the styrospray product and liked it you can roll and brush it on as well as spray. it did take awhile to set up and a competitor used some on a sign downtown and I see bubbles in it after about 6 months but I dont know what conditions he used it in

I bought a couple hundred dollars worth of Styrospray and used it on a job, following the directions closely. The next day, giant bubbles appeared all over the sign and I had to take a different approach to finish it. I rechecked my procedures and felt I had followed the instructions exactly so I don't know what happened. The surface was not wet when the product was applied and the weather was moderate but it did get quite warm the day the bubbles showed up, which may have had something to do with the problem. I haven't tried to use it since.

I might try the Foam Coat the next time the situation arises.
