Great Stuff, How much is in a can

Can someone tell me how many sq ft can
you get from a 16oz can of big gap filler
after it cures.

Thanks Rich

It's cubic inches, not square feet, and one can will give you just
about enough to seal around a door with a one-inch gap. I would say
that is about 1200 cubic inches, or 2/3 of a cubic foot.

Note that there are different versions. Some expand more than others,
on purpose. The minimally-expanding type is for applications where
things might move, like a window or door frame.

40,000 sq ft if you spread it thin enough.

A few sq ft less than one usually needs for any specific job. Be sure to
have an extra can on hand.
