sprayed insulation ?

I wnat to retrofit my mobile home with spray insulation. Is it possible to do this with existing roll insulation in my exterior walls. I want to do this myself.
Thanks

I assume you are referring to spray urethane
insulation?
there are companies that do that
they bring a machine on a trailer...
expensive and effective

the cans are a hassle

be careful!! fiberglass can get in your skin, and lungs and stay there pretty much the rest of your life.

not a good thing wear protection and stand upwind, most masks leak
just the combination of mask and goggles is almost a joke.

I have it in my hands from cleaning rain gutters..
good luck Nico

I got a lot of the fiberglass particles in my hands and arms from insulating under my house, years ago; I did discover a fairly good way to get a lot of it out: duct tape! Just tape over your skin, and pull it off. I still use this method when I get thistle or other nearly invisible needles in me. Package tape also works...
