When the spray foam is applied correctly and is cured, it can be coated with a variety of products that will allow the insulation to last for years. The coating will prevent the spray foam from absorbing water, which can lead to mold growth, and it will help keep the foam in good condition for as long as possible.

One of the most popular uses of spray foam is to seal a home’s leaky windows and doors. This can be a messy job that’s best left to a professional. They will be able to mix the chemicals in the right proportions and get it into tight spaces that a DIYer would miss.
