Kraken Bond vs Sprayman: FastCoat and SprayCoat Compared

The same 24-can box, the same 480 board feet claimed at 1 inch, and on the latest readings SprayCoat was the cheaper of the two at $354.95 against $359.99. Sprayman has the cleanest review base in the whole set, 44 of 44 tied to an order at a 4.77 average. Beyond the price, what separates them is the paperwork: FastCoat sits #1 at 86.7, SprayCoat #4 at 75.

Research by Best Spray Foam research desk · Published · Updated

The short answer

Which one, and when neither

  1. FastCoat, if the complete document set decides it

    Kraken Bond publishes the data sheet with a date and a revision, the safety data sheet and the user manual on its own site. Sprayman publishes its sheet and its manual, and the safety data sheet we hold came from customer support rather than a public page. On the stores, 275 of 283 reviews at krakenbond.net are tied to an order, 97%, at 4.66.

  2. SprayCoat, if the review base and the listing decide it

    Every review Sprayman’s store serves for this kit is tied to an order in that shop: 44 of 44, at a 4.77 average, which no other store in this set matches. Its sheet prints ASTM E84 and UL 723 at 2 inches, and its Amazon listing carries 4.1 from 471 ratings with 9% one star against 13% for FastCoat.

  3. Neither, if the 480 board feet is your material takeoff

    Both 480 board foot claims are maker figures at 1 inch from the same 650.4 ounces rather than yield measured on a wall, and neither sheet prints a density. Both are sold as Class A, which is a band and not a score, flame spread 0 to 25 and smoke developed 0 to 450. On price, SprayCoat was the cheaper of the two at $354.95 against $359.99.

The claim, the paper and the price

A green cell means one record is stronger on that exact row. It does not turn a document score, a marketplace average or a maker yield into a hands-on performance test.

What would change this

The missing piece, named

  • A Sprayman safety data sheet on a public page would close its one open document row. The copy our desk holds came from customer support.
  • Both kits read in stock on the same day would make the price row a same-day comparison; the row prints each price with the date it was read.
  • A density figure on either sheet would settle the performance row that is blank for both.

Asked about this pair

Questions people type, answered from the records

Which is cheaper, FastCoat or SprayCoat?

On the latest readings, FastCoat at $359.99 at the Kraken Bond store against SprayCoat at $354.95 at the Sprayman store, both read on October 29, 2026. SprayCoat was $5.04 less for the same 24-can kit, which is $0.55 an ounce for FastCoat against $0.55 for SprayCoat. Prices here are dated snapshots, so confirm the seller before you pay.

What do the reviews on the two brand stores show?

Read as a pair rather than an average, on September 12, 2026: sprayman.co served 44 reviews for SprayCoat and all 44 were tied to an order in that shop, 100%, at a 4.77 average; krakenbond.net served 283 for FastCoat with 275 tied to an order, 97%, at 4.66. Verified there means the platform could match the review to a purchase in the same shop, and it says nothing about either Amazon listing.

Do both makers publish a fire result?

Yes, both sheets print ASTM E84 and UL 723 at a 2-inch thickness, and our desk has seen the test report behind each one. Neither maker publishes the report, so neither do we. Class A is a band rather than a score: flame spread 0 to 25 and smoke developed 0 to 450.

Do they claim the same coverage?

Yes. Both state 480 board feet at 1 inch for a 24-can kit of 650.4 net ounces, which is a published claim under stated conditions rather than installed yield.

What else do Kraken Bond and Sprayman sell in spray foam?

Both sell a pest block foam in straw and gun cans, a gap and crack filler, a fire block foam and a black landscape foam, each with its own record on this site. Kraken Bond also sells a window and door foam and a wide spray can that are tracked here, and Xtreme Pro window and door and fire block gun cans and a fence post foam, sold out when we read both stores on October 18, 2026, that are not. Sprayman sells two window and door gun foams and an X-Climate Pro fire block foam that this site does not track yet, and an Insulation & Pest Block DIY Kit that bundles insulation foam with sealing foams and tools. Neither brand’s adhesives, coatings and cleaners are tracked here.

How this page is built

Nothing here was sprayed by us

This comparison reads what each maker publishes and what the listings show; it is not a hands-on test. Every figure in the tables comes from the product records behind the full record pages, with the document it came from and the date we read it, and it changes on this page the day a record is re-read. A side is marked ahead only when both were measured the same way, or when only one maker put the figure in writing. The rules behind the order on the category pages are in the methodology.
