Use and Care Manual

Description

Insulating Foam Sealant is a polyurethane foam
sold in aerosol cans. Once the foam is sprayed from the can, it
immediately begins to cure and dry into a hard plastic. It sticks
permanently to most surfaces, including skin. The can contains a
quick reacting hazardous chemical, isocyanate, to form the non-
hazardous plastic, and a highly flammable gas to force the product
out of the can.
Instructions
1. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. Great Stuff

Insulating Foam
Sealants contain dangerous chemicals and should not be used
by or around children.
2. Shut off all sources of ignition or open flames during use,
including pilot lights on stoves, dryers, furnaces and water
heaters, candles, cigarettes and electrical devices. Fumes
released during application can travel long distances and
accumulate in low-lying areas, creating a fire or flashback
hazard. Open flames in adjacent rooms behind neighboring
walls should also be shut off. Keep the area free from all
sources of ignition until all fumes have dissipated.
3. Provide plenty of fresh air or ventilation. Open windows and
doors, and create additional airflow as necessary to disperse
flammable vapors and prevent the inhalation of fumes. If no
ventilation is available and the foam is being sprayed in a small,
confined area, wear a NIOSH approved respirator equipped
with an organic vapor sorbent and P100 particulate filter
after obtaining required health exam and respirator training.
Overexposure to isocyanate can irritate the eyes, nose, throat
and lungs. It may also result in an allergic respiratory response,
such as asthma, or decreased lung function. Overexposure may
lead to permanent sensitization to isocyanate.
FIRST AID: Move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration.
Seek medical attention.
Polyurethane prepolymers, polymeric diisocyanate, isobutane,
methyl ether, and propane. See can label for additional contents.
