Since I'm scheduled to pull the deck and change tanks :shocking: :shocking: in about two weeks, I knew I needed some 4 Lb foam. Now someone else may have posted this site recently, but if so I couldn't find it.
This company is located in Palm Beach county, so they're ideally located for us guys in the Southeast.

So I ordered mine today, and should have it Thursday.
Same stuff I ordered, two kits @ $16.50 each.
I am soon going to get back to my tank project, I still have some odds and ends to track down. We've had crappy weather so the coating on my tank took quite a while to dry.
I will post after I use the product, in case I have any tips or insights.
Also, other (secondary) things have been taking up some time...like moving my daughter to an apartment, painting a bedroom, staining and finishing bedroom furniture, 5 weddings in 6 weeks, and getting a stinkin' colonoscopy!

Dauley, FWIW, RDS in Perry, FL quoted me 3 1/2 weeks for my Minx tank, which happens to be the same as an 18C tank.
They also increased the depth 3/4" to increase the capacity to 45 gallons from 41 gallons at no increase in price. :wrench: :lightning :idea:

I got my foam today. It consists of two, one gallon cans, square like laquer thinner can. I will be running some trials to get a handle on the performance of it. :cool!: :lightning

I'm a couple days out from setting my nylon tank and filling voids in my GT hull.

...hate to ask, but what did (2) 80 gallon cans set you back? ($)
I'm a couple days out from setting my nylon tank and filling voids in my GT hull.
One kit, 16 Lb., (two) one gallon cans, good for four cubic feet, is $48.00 plus $11.00 shipping.
This company is also a good source of other fiberglass, waxes, etc.
Order it the way George ordered it, the $48 kit. I ordered two $16.50 kits and it was not enough product. I do not think that it expands 15 times its liquid size!
