    Thanks so much Russel. For some reason I couldn't find Foamglas any higher than 60psi on Distribution International. Maybe I overlooked it, I will check again. Thanks!

    Is this the right Foamglas?

    Hoping that at least one of the many smart individuals on this forum can please let me know if this is the right Foamglas. I plan on doing 2" foamglas and 2" CaSi board on top. I just need someone to sign off and then I'm off to ordering the material! Just a simple yes or no answer. Thanks!
