Anyone used the Kraken Spray foam on the metal panels of a pole barn walls/roof? I have a 16ftx24 ft pole building that has been cobbled together over the coarse of 15 years, that I tried to insulate with 1/2" rigid foam. Like about all pole buildings, there are gaps, and this one is probably worse then most, as I used a mix of new and old metal, and new/old poles and purlions, and the shed started out as a 12x16, and had been added on, about 10 years after the first part was built. I have a 12000w window unit in it, and it keeps it tolerable, but I know I'm loosing a lot of air through many gaps, and poor insulation. Dogs stay in shed at night or when we go anywhere, and without the AC, it would be 100-120 degrees in there. I dont care about getting R40 or anything, just want maybe R5 on walls, maybe R11-13 on roof and the air gaps closed. I dont want to spend $300-500 on the 'froth packs'; but a $200 Kraken Kit 'seems' like it might fit the bill. Anyone use them? Happy, unhappy, durability? Walls are only about 8 ft on the high side, like 7 ft on lower side. I would plan on removing the rigid foam before spraying, and maybe reinstall; or maybe foam ceiling and reuse rigid foam on walls?
