   I used OSI acoustical sealant for my attic airsealing. I was pleased with it. When the air temp gets below 40F it is hard to work with as the label warns. I bought it through my local lumber yard, Fullerton Lumber. I live in southeast SD. Paid less than $5 for 29oz tube.

   Brett,
   In the past, I've bought Tremco sealant from Energy Federation Inc. (www.efi.org), although they don't publish their Tremco prices online.

   You can get Tremco sealant from BetterEnergyStore for $10.82 per tube -- here is the link:

   I have been wondering how the price of acoustical sealant compared to the price of EPDM gaskets.
   For instance for the purpose of AirTightDrywall.
   I seem to remember the gaskets to be about 50cents a linear foot.
   does this sound right?

   Brett(or anyone)... do you have any idea how many linear feet of sealant per 30oz tube?

   OSI also has a green series of acoustical sealant now too that any hardware store carrying OSI products should be able to order if they don't have it. it is around the $6 per tube in cases
