indoor aquatics area
I have a G.C. that is building an indoor rehab pool and in thier specs they call for closed cellon the roof next to a interior wall the spray area consist of an area of 3" wide 3" thick and 170' long that is 30' in the air. This will also be exposed. I've been spraying open cell for 4 years and just sprayed my first job with closed cell. Is this job worth the effort? And can a good sprayer acomplish this for an exposed finish? Any info will help From what I understand there is no backing on the sides just a flat roof |

Roofing is a different animal than wall foam, in technique and application. Plus you don't have to warranty a studwall foam job for 10-years +... |
