6. When changing cans, tighten the
flow control knob before removing
the empty can (Figure 4). Use
GREAT STUFF PRO™ Gun
Cleaner to remove any residual
foam from the attachment area
before attaching fresh can.
Always replace can immediately.
Press the trigger to fill the foam
dispensing gun with adhesive.
7. Dispense adhesive for 3-6
seconds to purge air from gun.

squeeze trigger on the foam
dispensing gun or adjust the flow
control knob on the back of the
gun (Figure 5).
Applic ation
1. Keeping can inverted, apply a
1/2" (13 mm) bead of adhesive
the full length of each stud or joist
(Figures 6 and 7).
TIP: Apply adhesive in a continuous
bead, with no voids or breaks, to
achieve an effective bond.
2. Wherever sheet materials butt
together along sistered studs or
joists, dispense two 1/2" (13 mm)
beads side by side or one 1/2" (13
mm) bead in a zigzag pattern the
full length of the sistered studs or
joists (Figures 8 and 9).
TIP: Always close the flow control
knob when the gun is not in use
3. Clean foam dispensing gun
periodically by rubbing the nozzle
on soft wood to free it from
adhesive. Do not use a sharp
object to clean foam dispensing
gun. Use a solvent cleaner such
as GREAT STUFF PRO™ Gun
Cleaner between extended
periods of non-use.
4. Adhere substrates within 10
minutes of dispensing adhesive.
If the applied bead has skinned
over, scrape it off and apply a new
bead.
5. Mechanical fasteners must be
installed soon after adhesive
application in all cases.
Assemblies must be compressed
to enable GREAT STUFF
PRO™ Wall & Floor Adhesive
to aggressively bond to the
materials. Mechanical fasteners
should be installed within 15
minutes after applying for best
bond.
NOTE: GREAT STUFF PRO™ Wall &
Floor Adhesive reaches initial bond
within two hours, and is fully cured
in about seven days. Cure times will
be shorter at higher temperature
and humidity, and longer at lower
temperature and humidity.
