A strong Great Stuff alternative whose white color and fast cure make it nicer for visible, paint-ready repairs. Best for gaps under 1 inch rather than large voids.

Pros

  • Dries a bright white that blends with trim and is easy to paint over, unlike orange/yellow foams
  • Fast tack-free time of about 8 minutes speeds up multi-spot sealing jobs
  • High-density, UV-resistant foam holds up better than budget foams on exterior use

Cons

  • Rated only to 1 in gaps, so it is not a substitute for a big-gap or 3 in foam
  • White color still yellows somewhat with long UV exposure if left unpainted
  • Like all straw-applied cans, the tube clogs and the remainder is usually one-and-done
