Spray foam is an economical way to fill gaps around your home, but applying it can get messy. The folks at Great Stuff have solved this sticky situation with their new Pestblock Insulating Spray Foam Sealant, which features a Smart Dispenser straw.

The Problem With Expandable Foam Sealant

Small straws on most canned expandable foam sealants make them harder to control. Foam spurts out in bits, and drips quickly clog the straw.

Even if you use an extension tube, it can easily slide off and release foam everywhere except where it’s needed.

More Precise Application

Great Stuff Pestblock Insulating Spray Foam Sealant’s Smart Dispenser straw creates less mess and gives you more control.

When you slowly let up on the trigger, pressure releases in the Smart Dispenser to give you a spurt-free spray and a consistent bead. 

This spray foam sealant creates a long-lasting, airtight and water-resistant barrier on gaps and cracks up to 1 inch.

Use it on:

  • PVC pipe penetration
  • Exterior of electrical cable lines
  • Water faucet penetration
  • Attic hatch frame
  • Rim joists
  • Sill plates

Flexibility

Most foam sealants are a “one and done” application, so you need to use the whole can in one go.

Great Stuff Pestblock Insulating Spray Foam Sealant can be reused for up to 30 days with the straw left attached to the canister. Just clean the tip after your first use, then you can save the rest for another project!

It’s tack-free in five to 15 minutes and trimmable in one hour. And once it’s dry, you can sand, paint, and stain it to match the surroundings.
