As I’m tearing into my old house I continually find little nooks and crannies that need insulation, but I am fed up with the regular cans. Anyone have recommendations, and maybe an online source, for either the gun & can versions or maybe the A/B component kits?
Thanks!

I've used the Hilti guns for years and have had good luck with them.

I have a Hilti & a couple of those cheapo no name guns. Can't say there is any real difference as far as the operation, lot more plastic in the Hilti.
If you keep it clean, a cheap one will last forever I think. Card spray in a spray can works good for cleaning the gun if you get it while it's soft.
Don't let it cure in the gun, and don't bugger up the end of the needle where it seals at the end of the nozzle. That's the critical airseal area.
When you tear it down to clean it, lube everythign with vaseline when reassembling.

Good timing bro...I was just gonna search that same info..gotta glue the place together somehow..
Looks like you're gonna need a lot of it. I bought it by the case from them, it's listed under adhesives. They are as cheap as I have found, but maybe someone local to you has it for less.

These people have the larger kits as specials sometimes, as "old stock, outdated" -- I have found the gun stuff to be usable long after the expiration date, reeeeeeeel long after.

Very interesting... Got any idea about pricing? And, what is the difference between this stuff and the stuff that they spray out of the $20k machine? Matt
Thanks for the feedback gents....that's not a mistake, it's rustic
