How to Use DAP Touch N Foam 600 Spray Foam Kits (Don't Make My Dumb Froth Pak Mistake)

Hopefully this video will help make your DAP DIY spray foam application a frothy success. I made a huge mistake spray foaming underneath my exposed floor with a Froth Pak! The big mistake I made was applying the foam in freezing temperatures. Had I applied it earlier when the weather was 16-32 deg celcius I think I would have had excellent results.
For certain applications I recommend the DAP DIY Spray Foam kits, and would definitely consider using it in the future. Next time, I would be sure to follow the recommended temperature window.

Bummer 😕 Could I ask, with such limited space, and nicely spaced, clean floor joists, why didn't you just use regular R-30 batts ? 🤔 I had the same problem on a stone foundation in my 200yr old Maine farmhouse because even in summer, those huge stone slabs stay pretty cool. I had to run an industrial propane heater the entire time I was spraying, and it was in July...lol. We learn this way, but unfortunately that stuff is not cheap. You didn't fail. You just learned another way not to do it..... I always say......

Good question. I was originally going to use batts then when I realized how tight the work area was decided it would be easier to spray it so I wouldn't have to worry about keeping the batts up and protected from critters etc.

Wow what a hack 😂

Never heard of that brand before, but good to know! Unfortunately (after only a brief look online) it doesn't look like it is readily available here in Canada.

Unfortunately not available here in Canadian Home Depots for me!

Wear goggles when you are spraying this stuff, especially spraying overhead!

[@koreyfreemanofficial]

Definitely good advice. I was blinking for awhile after I was done from the overspray.

Ya, not my finest hour. I thought having 2 of the 3 temp requirements being close would help me (substrate & tank temps), and that having the air temp being colder would mostly just mean a longer cure time. I didn't realize that the cold air temp would have such a big impact on the chemical reaction and quality of the foam. My bad
