So I was wondering for any wam users that has gotten messy or filled their clothes before: has any of you had or used expanding foam at least once and was it safe?
I'm curious to know because I was interested in using expanding foam for a underwear filling session I'm planning and I wanted to know if it's safe to use on your body by any chance before I consider buying them.
In case that it's not safe to use, is there any alternatives to expanding foam where the substance still expands on its own and isn't toxic?
NOT SAFE!!! the warnings on the side should clue you in. The Fumes arn't good for you, doubt the chemicals are either (polyurathane resin i think) and it gets HOT.

Yes please listen!!! I work in construction and you get this stuff on your skin it is an absolute nightmare to get off so wouldn't want to have around private parts and as stated by SNLMST above it gives of fumes which can be toxic and because when released from the tube, the chemical reaction does create heat.
Totally unsafe and useless for wam. It sets hard, and is very difficult to get off your hands. I've only used it for its intended purpose of filling gaps in walls
I understand, I won't use any expanding foam at all. Thank you all for the warnings. I might delete this thread since I'm now aware and got my question answered.

It's probably worth leaving the thread up, just in case anyone else has the same question and searches the forum.
I see your questions already been answered but just wanted to say that as a builder, this stuff is a tradesmen's/contractors worst nightmare... If anyone is still considering using it please don't. I can barely clean it out of the applicator gun, let alone clothes and hair. I've heard and seen videos of horror story's of cans exploding in the back of vans and trucks, it really ruins everything it comes into contact with. They do sell a dissolver, that's mostly just acetone, its for cleaning the applicator and dissolves fresh foam but doesn't do anything to cured. In my personal experince using it at work, it can take weeks to remove from skin, doesn't come off clothes at all and hair has to be cut.
Toxicity is the least of your worries. It's about the most tenacious kind of glue its legal to sell. The same goes for pretty much all moisture curing adhesives (ie contact with water makes them set!) Like MrMessMan I can also attest to this as a trade user.
Love you, too
