• Mist with water to speed cure.
• Trim cured foam with serrated blade.
• Any uncured product that gets on the skin can be removed with acetone.
• Shake vigorously for a minimum of 60 seconds. If the can sputters, simply shake the can while held upside down.
• Best results if used when product temperature ranges from 60-90°F (15-32°C). The can should not be exposed to temperatures more than 120°F. Cured foam should not be exposed to temperatures in excess of 240°F.
• Fill gaps <50%

Great Stuff™ cans featuring the Smart Dispenser™ may be reused up to 30 days with the straw left attached to the canister, just clean the tip after your first use. For best results:

• Thread the Smart Dispenser™ onto the valve until it is secure, ensuring there is no gap between the dispenser and the valve
• Do not unwind the dispenser after you have started using it.
• Let up on the trigger slowly to release pressure in the straw and prevent spurts during the next use and to achieve the most consistent bead.
• Tighten the flow control screw until fully closed for storage. Use can within 30 days of initial use.
• Store upright with dispenser still attached to can.

If using Great Stuff Pro™ with Foam Dispensing Gun, follow these additional steps before application: 

With the can secured, set your desired bead size by adjusting the flow control knob on the back of the gun (bead can be adjusted from 1/8"-3"). Then, pull the trigger to fill the gun with foam, dispensing excess foam into an appropriate waste receptacle. Lastly, test the bead size before applying. 

• Tighten the flow control screw until fully closed for storage. Use can within 30 days of initial use.
• Store upright with a foam dispensing gun attached.
• Always leave a can of foam attached to the gun with the flow control screw closed.
• When ready to change cans, shake the new can of foam for a minimum of 60 seconds.
• NEVER leave a gun without a can of adhesive without a can of Great Stuff Pro™ attached unless the gun has been thoroughly cleaned with Great Stuff™ Foam Cleaner.
