Vertical pass has been my go to for years and I love the consistency. However lately the picture frame first has been a learning curve with how humid it has been getting. Love the tips. Great vid
For a very smoother finish , maybe step back a little and definitely on side to side work from top to bottom... for a better look which gives customer a more satisfying experience...inspectors also can see the quality of a nice finish. vertical spraying u should box in first or at least top and bottom. Also need to at the top and bottom while spraying speed up at turn. Hard to explain in texts but if u just go up down up down at same speed top n bottom will fill more.. so on way up right before u go to go down u gotta speed it up and slow after finishing changing direction..
Hello Charlie, we always recommend checking your manufacturers' product documentation when it comes to environmental conditions and determining re-entry and re-occupancy times.
Hello, foam pulling away from the studs could be caused by a variety of things from wrong temperatures, improper moisture content, to not wetting the studs. Checking the rise time can help determine if it is a temperature issue. For more detailed information on processing procedures for our products you can find our processing packets on our website swdurethane.com.

Ouch slow down.. spraying closed cell you prob should box in, especially in winter.. build up a wave and follow it down. Only rises so fast and leading or spraying too fast you'll run thin and cost u more strokes.
Hello Joar, Without more information it is difficult to give you an exact answer on how using a barrier might affect the foam or the substrate you are applying to. When applying spray foam it is always best to consult the manufacturers guidelines in order to get the best performance. If you are using any of our products you can always reach out to our tech team 888-380-2022 for detailed help with the application of any SWD products.

Horizontal and vertical typical patterns for both open and closed cell using different techniques.

Never tried vertical one pass with open cell.
I'll try that one out today. Thanks
I can't imagine how the people that goes to this training program
Do on real world spray foam jobs they make looks easy to engage people
Horizontal strokes help open cell expand quickly so movement is faster, closed need a slower movement up the cavity because of slower expansion.
Great video, I learn with this
Yup
Great tips here. Thanks for the video. Can you share what type of respirator system they are using?
Hello Matt, In this video the sprayer was using a Bullard fresh air respirator.
Thank you
What size mixing chamber are you using? 5252?
Hello,
As this video was made a while back we can't say for certain, but most of the time while in the spray booth we us an AR4242.
I love to go up and down in the walls
Is it ok to apply spray foam insulation when the attic is 110 degrees? Will it fully cure? Or will it off gas forever?

Can someone tell me how to control the pulling away from studs on open cell foam ?

Hola Ariel, Usted pregunta a 45 grados de ángulo? Por favor especifique.
Helllo, does using a barrier to prevent expansion out of the cavities, alter insulation properties?
