"A putty type substance found inside a dehumidifier. It doesn’t seem to have any purpose that I can think of since it’s inside a plastic bag which is inside a plastic box with no visible pipes or vents attached to it. It doesn’t have any smell but it’s oily like glazing putty."
A: "It’s foam. Possibly for sound deadening so the compressor isn’t as noticeable. Bagged expanding foam is common for applications where you want to fill a space but don’t want the foam to make contact with what’s in the space. It’s more commonly used in packaging of odd shaped items, but can be used in other applications seen here."
And that would make you a creep!!
