I have a question regarding expansion and contraction of the expandable foam used in ICF blocks I would like to know the tolerance + and - due to climate mainly sun and cold temp's.Iam thinking about putting a coating on the wall that does not give.If anyone could send me in the right direction would be appreciated.

What kind of coating? Even if the coating does not "give" the eps will. Whatever the eps expands and contracts, since it is flexible, it should not be an issue.
