FAQs

How much foam will I need?

The amount needed varies depending on the size of the gaps and area being filled. Estimate carefully and purchase extra to ensure you have enough.

Can I use this foam underwater?

No, apply the foam to dry surfaces. Allow the foam to cure completely before introducing water.

How long does the foam take to cure?

Curing time varies depending on environmental conditions (temperature and humidity). Allow 24 hours for full cure, but follow the product label's recommendations.

Is the foam safe for fish and other aquatic life?

Yes, the foam is formulated to be non-toxic to aquatic life. Once cured, it is safe to introduce to aquatic environments.

Can I paint the foam?

Yes, once the foam is fully cured, you can paint it to match the surrounding surfaces or achieve a desired aesthetic look.

How should I store the foam?

Store the can in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the valve is clean to prevent clogging.

What should I do if the foam gets on my skin?

Immediately wipe off uncured foam with a cloth. Once cured, the foam is difficult to remove. Wear protective gloves during application.

Troubleshooting

Foam is not expanding properly.

Ensure the can is shaken well before use and that the application temperature is within the recommended range.

Foam is not adhering to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any contaminants. Consider lightly moistening the surface before application.
