What foam are you spraying
I'm recently new to the business and chose Demilec's Heat Lok Soy. What is everyone else spraying?

I'm spraying BioBased Open (501) and Closed cells (1701, 2001NB, and 3000) I've been happy with it. |

on a day to day basis i shoot basf/foam enterprises cc 81205 or 81206 pending on where its goin gaco western modified Oc gw052 (still looking for an es on 1701...lol) but i will shoot what ever is specified by the architect,,and try to maintain relationships with most of the vendors to allow such product access.. it is amazing the number of vendors who hand out a tech data sheet,,,but cant provide a copy of the referenced fire studies,,or any lab data to substantiate the claims,, and as i beal,,they have no icc-es or ul paper... most say its to expensive for the study while they charge you 2k for a set of material..rofl.. |

We started with the DOW then moved to the Gaco, and are back to the Dow. Both are very similar. We get the DOW closer to home & cheaper. We'd like to try the BASF, but don't want to fork out for the "certification" |
