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.

8. To control size of adhesive bead,

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.
