Troubleshooting

Foam does not expand properly.

Ensure the application area is slightly damp. Check the expiration date of the foam and ensure the canister is properly shaken before use.

Foam overflows during application.

Apply the foam sparingly. Start with small amounts, as the foam expands significantly. If overflow occurs, allow it to cure then trim with a knife.
