Remove Foam Sealant from Click Piston

[QwilleR]

Hello!!

I had a little accident this weekend. The nozzle of the spray foam canister got stuck and foam sprayed uncontrollably. I managed to throw the can outside so most of the foam ended up outside, but unfortunately, some foam got on my new click flooring that I missed removing before it dried. Does anyone have a tip on how I can remove the dried foam??

Gently scrape with a razor scraper.

Mechanical removal is the only way unfortunately. You might try cellulose solvent, but the risk is that everything else disappears and the foam remains :-/

Thanks for the tips...
I will try to remove it tonight. So tomorrow there will be an update on how it went.

It went really well to remove the foam with a razor blade scraper!! THANK YOU!

A smart thing could be to always have a paper bag when using foam sealant.

I usually dump the leftovers in it when I'm done, would have worked excellently for you in this case too

A hole opened in a can just as I started using it. There's a lot of foam from an entire can, but luckily I had just started with the walls, so I just had to throw it out. Looked like a failed bread dough afterwards.

MM someone else had the luck that it would explode in my toolbox.... it took a week to carve out screwdrivers and the like that were enshrined!
