Yammer Dan Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share #546 Posted March 17, 2012 Filling blocks for insulation?? What do you use?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreezyRider Posted March 17, 2012 Share #547 Posted March 17, 2012 Filling blocks for insulation?? What do you use?? When mine was built about 20 years ago, they used a coarse granular insulation material. Came in bags like concrete mix, just poured it down into the blocks as they built it. Should add that I'm not all that impressed by its insulating properties. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Venturous Posted March 17, 2012 Share #548 Posted March 17, 2012 Some use Traverstine? looks like a fine sand yet very light. I perfer the styrofoam balls. Just dont install either on a windy day. I would just fill them with concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yammer Dan Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share #549 Posted March 18, 2012 Painting the block. I would like to do this before roof doors and windows. Will Gravity spray gun handle Latex Duo paint?? What would you thin latex with or would you? And is primer for this also latex? I guess it is since it is a Duo paint? Can I spray with this gun or do I need to get a airless?? I know a lot about paint....it comes in different colors!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playboy Posted March 18, 2012 Share #550 Posted March 18, 2012 You would have to thin latex with water. Be a pain in the uknow in a gravity gun. Airless would be the way to go to get a good seal on that porous block and fast to just follow it up with a fluffy roller to smooth out any streaks you might get. You can rent them at paint stores or rental outlets 1 day will be more than enough time to do they job. I doubt the gravity gun would handle it without making thin as water and multiple coats.
