FAQs

How long does it take for the foam to cure?

Curing time varies depending on the size of the gap and environmental conditions. Refer to the product label for specific curing times, typically several hours to overnight.

Can I paint over the foam?

Yes, once the foam is fully cured, it can be painted. Allow the foam to cure completely before painting.

How do I clean up uncured foam?

Uncured foam can be cleaned up with appropriate solvents, such as acetone or a specialized foam cleaner. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Is the foam waterproof?

Yes, the Gorilla Filler Expanding Foam creates a weatherproof and waterproof seal.

What safety precautions should I take when using this product?

Use in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves and eye protection to avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhaling vapors. Keep out of reach of children.

Can I use this foam outdoors?

Yes, this foam is weatherproof and suitable for outdoor use. Ensure it's protected from direct UV exposure if not painted.

How should I store the remaining foam?

Store the can upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Properly seal the nozzle after use to prevent the foam from curing inside.

Troubleshooting

Foam isn't expanding.

Ensure the can is at room temperature and shake it well before use. Make sure the nozzle isn't blocked.

Foam is dripping or running.

Apply in thin layers, allowing each layer to cure before adding more. Clean up spills immediately with appropriate solvents before the foam cures.

Foam isn't sticking to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean and free of dust, grease, or oil. Lightly mist the surface with water before application.
