Today we take a look at Dow's new itch-free, Fiberglass-free SafeTouch Insulation. It looks like a batt. It handles like a batt. But you won't need gloves, respirators or long sleeves to handle these.
This isn't quite right. You DON'T install the same as fiberglass insulation! You CAN NOT cut it the same way. Per Mfg, you rib it apart rather than cutting it. Personally I find this awkward as you can't cut it precisely like fiberglass for e.g. elect boxes, narrow stud cavities or other irregular cavity configurations.
Are you talking about products, or are you here to complain about your sucky weather?
To ClewlessOne: you wanna cut it, cut it, that's fine. You don't have to rip it. I cut it when I use it. The guy in the video obviously cut his.
