bwolken Posted: Jun 16, 2009 04:31 PM	Gymnasium and spray foam Has anyone out there used spray foam on ceilings or walls of a gym or athletic facility? I have a prospect that wants the ceiling of a gym foamed then coated but they're concerned about the foam standing up to balls, students, etc. Any references, or case studies would help. Thanks in advance, Bob

I have done a couple of demo walls at events to show spraying, how it is done, how well it works and the rest. It doesn't take a lot of foam to do and people have been really impressed with the durability and etc with it. As long as the balls are pnumatic and not like basballs shot from a cannon it shoudl hold up fine using closed cell. The coating would be my worry and would need to flex a bit so check with manufactures on that part. They also may have examples of jobs and even references to how well it has stood up to date.
