Product Description Everbuild Exact Gap Foam has been formulated to provide a more precise foam product that only expands minimally on application. The controlled application significantly reduces the amount of cured excess foam that has to be cut back afterwards. However, if required the foam can be cut, sawn or plastered over after only 2 hours. This Gap Foam's controlled expansion reduces the danger of wet foam falling onto the floor and surrounding area. Exact Gap Foam is also ideal for applications where it is important not to impact too much stress onto the item being installed. This makes this foam ideal for filling roof tile voids / draught points around the home, gaps around pipe entries, window frames, door frames or repairing cracks and gaps in walls and floor boards including electrical wire chasing prior to plastering. Exact gap also has excellent insulating properties making it suitable for use behind cladding to exterior walls and behind soffit and barge boards. Exact Gap features a rubber free valve to prevent clogging and leakage. Box Contains 1 x Everbuild EVBEXACT7 exact gap foam 750 ml

Does exactly as we hoped
We recently purchased a house that required a full rewire and heating system. It mean some holes were put it, especially on the coving we had. So we needed to pop foam in, to then cut away, before a thin layer of filler. We went with the low expanding foam, and it was perfect for this job. While it definitely expands quite a lot it is lower than other expanding foam products we have used. After a couple of hours it was easy to cut the excess, as planned. Follow the instructions, and you won't go far wrong. I'd suggest using it to fill in about half the area needed. We did slightly more than that, and it was more than we expected.Also, ensure you damp down the area before you spray to allow good adhesion to the surfaces, as per instructions.It dried within the 2 hours recommended, and after filling in a lot of holes, we still have some left in the can.

Does what it says.
Gap filler with only minimal expansion. Good to use where you do not want to put too much pressure on adjacent fittings. But will still have slight expansion.

Perfect for the Job
Did just what it was supposed to do, filled both a hole from a pipe being removed and the side of a window frame. Only problem the man of the house had was that the nozzle wouldn't fit on the foam cleaner can so it ended up being dumped. No patience!

Expands same as ordinary gap foam
Found no difference in expansion between this and the ordinary foam filler you can buy more easily and cheaply elsewhere, certainly not "exact gap" so make sure you protect all surrounding surfaces as it continues to expand for an hour or so after application. Spills can be removed with an acetone nail varnish remover but its still a horrible job. Customer service was good.

Disappointed
Very disappointed with this product. If you need to fill a small space, find another product. It is very difficult to control the amount of foam coming out of the can, even when you let go of the trigger the foam still keeps coming out. You end up in a right mess, foam everywhere that you didn't want it !

Faulty can
Unfortunately my can was faulty, not sure what happened and whether it was the nozzle or the can but couldn't fix the nozzle on and as soon as you touched the top the foam poured out as if there was a pressure issue or a leak and would not stop. Had a few tries attempting to hold, screw, and tape the nozzle in place while it sprayed foam all over me and my storeroom but no such luck. Left it alone, cleaned up with some foam eater, tried again, but still no. The seller was very helpful though and quickly refunded.This is a real pain to clean up too!This is a mark on the product/my individual can and not the seller at all

Really does expand
Bought this to fill up the hole in the wall left by the tube from the tumble drier when I changed to a condenser. I started spraying it into the hole but thought it wasn't expanding like I thought it should, so I used the whole can. Came back an hour later and it had expanded so much it was like I had a beach ball sat in my kitchen and a football hanging from the wall outside. Spent about ten minutes cutting it all away with a bread knife.Good quality expanding foam, but do not underestimate the amount that it will expand (or keep a bread knife handy).

Reduced expansion
This is excellent for controlled filling of small spaces tried in 1.5 inch wide tube and filled perfectly easy to cut excess I used a pair of scissors
