The insulation and caulk options i have , which one ?

Post by M300SEL »

I have a small project on the Studio Design forum http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=9336

and got some material Q's

I've been searching for local suppliers for fiberglass and rockwool ,

i found that there is a fiberglass factory here which uses Owens Corning technology , this is the website http://www.afico.com.sa/

I did not fined the 700 series nor the pink fluffy fiberglass , but I did fined rigid fiberglass boards in different densities , Faced and Unfaced , here is the technical information for them

http://www.afico.com.sa/board%20insulation.zip

The one similar to the 703 is with 48Kg/m3 density is that right ?

Its dimensions are 1.2m W , 1m L ,

I called and asked about the price for the 2" thick board with 48Kg/m3 density , they said its about $5 for a single board , how does that compare to the prices in the US ?

For the treatment I will be using those boards , but for the walls ,floor and ceiling I think I need a thicker and "cheaper" non rigged fiberglass insulation, but i did not know what to use from those products in their website ?

Is this what I am looking for http://www.afico.com.sa/blanket%20insulation.zip ?

i found local rockwool too , http://www.saudirockwool.com/products.asp

i have no clue which of their product is the one for me , any one ?

The other thing is Caulk , i did not fiend any acoustic rated caulk in local stores , what i found is Window&door silicone caulk , :


1- http://www.whitelightningcaulk.com/prod ... 30600.html

2- http://www.acehardwareoutlet.com/(jlati ... &SKU=18189

and others that are 100% silicone , so which of them will do the job ?
