Spray foam insulation?

My cousin used spray foam inside second gen camaro quarters and it rusted in just a few months. Stick with the better products.

I sprayed foam on the inside of a toyota tailgate... guess which part is rusting out now?

Sure that's after 5 years of Omaha salty winters, but man... The only other parts of the truck that went bad were the last few inches of tailpipe right behind the wheel in the spray, and the bottom of the radiator that wasn't covered with the paper bag I used every winter trying to get her to warm up.

I think the foam definitely trapped moisture in there by plugging weep holes in the bottom of the hollow tailgate that were designed to let moisture run out. MY BAD.

By the way, I just joined and this looks like an awesome forum with lots of stuff I've got to read!

A ton and a half's worth of information, if you printed it all out and some pretty savy folks with a lot of information.

Have started brushing on the Cool Car and it does seem to work fairly well and is expensive.

Talked to a guy, today, and he was telling about a thread that was talking about using 'micro ballons' (mini, hollow, glass balls.....ceramic bubbles) that can be bought from Wicks Aircraft Supply and then mixed with high quality, exterior, latex paint.....supposedly the same same. Then I find a current thread about this here. sigh.

I'll definitely try this when I need it the next time ( a thread on another site goes into a pretty good discussion (hottrodders.com)...found that tonight, too...always a day late and a dollar short).

I'm glad I posted the question here, rather than jumping ahead with the job on my own. I stored the car all winter inside, to prevent the condensation problem, and am ready to start work on it again.

Sounds like the brushable Coolcar may be the answer for my project after all is said and done. I can apply it thin enough that I can still fit my headliner in without problems, and I can use it on a few other areas as well. I hope I can buy it in Canada. Seems like every time I turn around there is another good product "no longer available" due to environmental concerns. I understand that all solvent based paints may soon be banned. I'm all for saving the environment, but some products for specific jobs can't be duplicated, and would be a real loss.

Thanks for the info!:)

Can you color coat either product, Lizardskin or Coolcar with body color paint. I would like the interior to color match the outside although not as a finished paint (say the base coat only)?
