Temperature: Spray foam products are temperature sensitive.  You can spray this kit in colder outdoor temperatures; the key is to keep the core temperature of the tanks within the proper range of 75-85°F.

Shake Well: Prior to using this kit, the canisters must be shaken well.  One way to acheive this with the larger kits is to remove each tank from its box and roll back and forth on one edge for at least 2 minutes.

Change Nozzles: It is important to change the nozzle after you stop spraying for more then 30 seconds.  Failure to change nozzles may result in damage to the spray gun.

Reuse Nozzles: It is possible to clean and reuse a nozzle 2-3 times.  As soon as you are done spraying, remove the nozzle and drop it in a can of acetone.  You can also use our Handi-Cleaner to clean out uncured foam.

Speed & Distance: Keeping the gun 12-18 inches away from the surface and moving the gun at 1 foot per second will produce 3" thick foam.  3" thickness is typical for Open Cell foam, and typically produces the best yields.  Highly skilled professionals may be able to produce foam at 2 inches or even 1 inch thickness.

Thickness: 3" thickness is typical for Open Cell foam, and typically produces the best yields.  Highly skilled professionals may be able to produce foam at 2 inches or even 1 inch thickness.

Safety Considerations: Our Safety Kit includes a tyvek suit with hood, respirator, goggles, and 2 pairs of gloves.

Clean Up: You can clean up uncured foam with Handi-Cleaner.  Once foam is fully cured, you will have to remove it by mechanical means.
