I can smell that foam
SentencesThatStartWithBitch
It's great stuff
370zSteve
I’m sure it’s course and it gets everywhere
NacLac
Yeah, but it does a nice job insulating
Yupurineutah
They used the wrong kind. That shit warps window and door frames.
There is a bridge in Eugene that has a shit ton of this crap sprayed around the base of each vertical strut for some reason.
zubsub2010
Probably to late, but next time borrow an oscillating tool with the straight edge scraper. Peels that right off super fast and super clean.
peggleforscale
That’s kind of the point it gets everywhere it’s insulation so it shouldn’t be visible most of the time.
SXSam
No gloves?
It looks itchy.
Spice002
Sharpen your scraper and put WD40 on it to keep it from sticking to it.
itchyanditchy
Just like prom night.
Jagerbeast
Not sure if legit, or a wd40 joke
LoPhatJoe
Well hey, it's better than spraying hate foam
WenTheEternallySurprised
Propane torch. Not the first choice if you're picky about how much is removed, but it works.
TheMightyMoto
Anything better to use to stop a draft from a window?
Strangedays2024
Strictly speaking no, but you can achieve somewhat okay outcome with backer rod and plastic house/window wrap.

Nope

Plastic wrap & paint-friendly tape. Or get the wrap you use a hairdryer to seal.
Oneill249
Mice dislike the taste of it too
TehTuna
I'm sure there is a much more messy way of doing that
myputtanescaisbetter
I'm not aware of an easier way to fix shitty craftsmanship

I'm guessing someone sprayed her the foam.
Solo761
If I remember correctly the backstory, she mistook spray foam can wit hair spray can

It's the only thing holding my bedroom window in right now.
Why is your window not holding itself in, or your landlord not installing a new one?
Very old cheaply made vinyl window slowly collapsing in on itself. I have a replacement ready, but I'm waiting for summer.
I need to see about getting a replacement window for my bedroom. The glass has come loose, & the weights are broken.
Fortunately, my brother in law works at a window maker, so I got mine cheap, otherwise I'd probably just leave it until the foam fails.
