| I like the DAPtex Plus window and door. Water cleanup of any mistakes. Expands, but doesn't overexpand. Stays flexible.
It does need a cleaner surface to adhere than the solvent based stuff, in my experience.
About $5 (?) a can in the paint department of most places. One can will normally do a patio door. Can't say for windows, guess it depends on the size. My can says 510 ft at a 1/4" bead size.
btw...heres my thinking. Yes, filling the whole space is good, but I don't think it makes THAT much difference. A bead of foam at the outside of the frame then a bead on the inside, should (if done well) create a dead air space. I don't think that extra 1" or so of foam will change a lot. Better to make sure your caulking is done very well. Water will do more damage than a little bit of cold air.
It's your money though...it might be more important than I think. Prob a little harder to do with a replacement window also. __________________
