    You can't really blow through it like you can with foam that you would use for filtration. Yes, I think it is the type used for wall treatment....similar to that in recording studios.....either way, seems to work OK.

    I'll have another take on that......you can blow through it fairly easily & here's a couple of better quality shots.
