Ever Build Foam Eater 250ml

Ever Build Foam Eater 250ml is a paste for shifting cured polyurethane expanding foam and adhesive residue once it’s set hard on a surface.

What it’s used for

Anyone who’s used expanding foam round a pipe or a frame knows how it gets everywhere. Once it’s cured, a solvent cleaner won’t touch it. Foam Eater is made for that stage. It is often used on foam left on window and door frames. Because it’s a paste, it stays put on vertical surfaces as well as flat ones.

How to use it: advice from Glasgow

Trim off as much of the cured foam as you can with a sharp knife first, so the paste only has a thin layer to deal with. Spread it over the residue and leave it to work. Leave it for the time given on the label, then scrape and wipe it off. Results vary with the surface, and it may struggle on some coated finishes, so try a small hidden patch first. Wear gloves and read the label before use. For uncured foam on a gun or a surface, a foam cleaner is the right product instead. Ever Build Foam Eater 250ml is listed in our consumables range.

Common Questions

How long do I leave Foam Eater on?

Spread a thin layer, a millimetre or two, over the cured foam and leave it about an hour, then wipe it off with a damp cloth. Thicker foam may need another go.

Will Foam Eater damage the surface?

Test a small hidden patch first. The maker warns it can mark some fabrics, PU coated baths and natural stone or marble.

Can it clean wet foam?

No, it is for foam that has cured. For fresh foam on a gun or a surface, use a foam cleaner instead.
