OC703 would work. Other similar options would be OC705 and 8lb mineral board both of which would have higher absorbancy ratios due to being more dense. I checked SPI's website and the closest location to you is in San Fransico which is a bit of a drive. You could always do what I recommended to another member which was call any and all local insulation sales/installation areas and see if they will sell you any of the materials to you.

If you find a local place to sell it to you the end result will be far less expensive costing about $35 for an equivalent amount of mineral board or about $100 for the same amount of OC705.

Well I bet I can ask my builder to check with the guy that did the insulation on my house. What is the official name for it, so I can ask him to get me some.

Yeah, thats it you want Owens Corning 705 or 8LB Mineral Board most likely in 2" thickness. They will both perform similarly with the cost advantage going towards the mineral board.
