Non-itchy glass wool

May 5th •
It's not that glass wool or rock wool are bad.
I have continued to say that if there is anything bad about it, it is the "bag-packed" products that are practically difficult to install properly.
However, products without bags have been disliked because they are considered to be "itchy."
However, a few years ago, a non-itchy glass wool called Aclear was commercialized.

For a long time, this was the only option, but recently MAG has released a similar non-itchy glass wool.

I think that by using either of these two and using a 2mm polyethylene sheet, all of the issues of price, ease of installation, appearance, airtightness, and moisture resistance will be neatly resolved.
It isn't advertised as much as Aclear so most people probably don't know about it, but I think it's an excellent product.
