spray foam insulation colors?
 
I need to insulate some gaps in my metal building, the inside of the
building is white. I would like to find a spray type foam to
match the color (without painting). I remember using Great Stuff
can spray but it was a dull tan color.
I also need sugguestions for insulating the 5 foot gaps between the
steel wall studs.

It all is. You have to paint

Sheets of foam. Either the white bead board (expandable polystyrene) or the
extruded foams like Dow's Styrofoam. The materials are treated to be flame
retardant, but code requires it to be covered with something like sheetrock.

One thing that won't matter here because it's inside a building, but I've
found that the spray foam turns a dark orange-brown after a few weeks out in
the sun. I also found that carpenter bees seem to love the stuff.
