  • Best Practices for Sika Everbuild Dual Purpose Foam Cleaner

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Surface Preparation

      When cleaning spilt/excess foam, ensure surrounding areas are protected with impervious masking tape to prevent attack by the solvents in this product.

    2. Application

      1. Gun foam may be left attached to a gun for a max-imum of 7 days after use. If left for longer, there is a risk of the foam curing from the nozzle inwards or propellant leaking out. If foam is left attached to the gun, spray EVERBUILD® Dual Purpose Foam Cleaner over the outside of the discharge nozzle be-fore storage to remove any residues which may seize up the valve.

      2. When you have finished using foam on a project, and do not intend to use the gun again within 7 days, remove the foam can (CARE – GLOVES/GOGGLES). When you have read the usage/safety instructions on the can, attach EVERBUILD® Dual Purpose Foam Cleaner to your gun by screwing the canister onto the gun adapter until it will go no further, taking care not to cross thread or over tighten the canister. Pull the trigger on the gun to release the solvent into the gun barrel and dis-charge the solvent into a suitable container for dis-posal. Only stop discharging the cleaner when the solution being ejected from the gun is completely clear. Leave the EVERBUILD® Dual Purpose Foam Cleaner attached to the gun for 5 minutes to allow the solvent in the gun to work on the residues in-side. Pull the trigger once again until only clear solvent emerges. Leave for a further 5 minutes and repeat this process 2 or 3 times until the gun is com-pletely clear.

      The following directions will also help prolong the lifeof your gun.: When replacing empty foam can with a full one, al-ways clean the threaded adapter ring on the gun with EVERBUILD® Dual Purpose Foam Cleaner.

      Never dismantle a gun.

      Never try to clean a gun with water. This will cure the foam instantly and leave the gun useless.

      When using DIY grades, attach free red nozzle to foam cleaner and squirt foam down plastic nozzle un-til clean.

    3. Curing

      If foam in a gun is allowed to cure, the gun will be-come completely useless, as no solvent will dissolve PU Foam once cured.
