1 / 5
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Helps reduce drafts and energy loss, contributing to lower heating and cooling costs.
Effectively blocks moisture, helping to prevent water infiltration.
Meets safety standards with a Class 1 fire rating for added protection.
Can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications, providing reliable sealing and insulation in a wide range of environments.
Trapped gases escape once the foam fills the void, preventing over-expansion.
Seals without exerting pressure, preventing damage to window and door frames.
Meets industry standards for performance and safety.
Includes a stop-and-restart adapter and extra straw for extended use across multiple projects.
DESCRIPTION
No Warp is a high-performance expanding foam designed specifically for use around window and door frames. No Warp Foam also works for foundations, attics and more. Unlike typical polyurethane foams, this low-pressure formula prevents any undue force from being applied to frames, ensuring stability without compromising the structure. The foam is self-venting, meaning once it fills the space, the trapped gases escape, preventing over-expansion and pressure buildup. This creates an air-tight seal that enhances energy efficiency by blocking drafts and moisture. With a Class 1 fire rating and compliance with ASTM E84 and AAAMA 812-04 standards, DAP No Warp offers both safety and performance. The foam comes with a stop-and-restart adapter, making use for multiple projects easy. Interior or exterior use. For optimal results, apply in temperatures between 60 and 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Highly Adhesive
Foam is highly adhesive, and dried foam is very difficult to remove.
Wear gloves, eye protection, a hat and work clothes
Wear gloves, eye protection, a hat and work clothes.
Cover Areas
Cover any areas you do not want exposed to foam.
Use Drop Cloths
Use drop cloths when working with polyurethane foam.

Read all instructions on package.
Prep the Surface
Make sure surface is free of oil and dirt.
Requires Some Humidity
Polyurethane foam sealants require some humidity in order to cure properly. For best results, apply in temperatures between 60-100°F (16-38°C). Allow foam to cure fully before replacing baseboards, window or door frames.
Shake the Can No More than 30 Seconds
Shaking for more than 30 seconds may result in less foam yield.
Always Test Application
Always test application on scrap material first. Release trigger before reaching end of gap as foam continues to dispense for several seconds after trigger is released.
Do Not Overfill Gaps
Do not overfill gaps – fill gaps 1/3 full, allow room for foam to expand
Clean Spills Immediately
Clean spills immediately (before foam dries) with acetone or nail polish remover containing acetone. DO NOT USE WATER. Do not attempt to remove cured foam with solvents. Cured foam wears off and is not harmful to health.(moisture helps to cure foam).
Paint Outdoor Applications to Avoid Discoloration
Wait until foam is rigid before painting or trimming (30-60 minutes). Landscape foam is UV resistant and will not discolor or break down in sunlight.
For Reusable Dispensing
For reusable dispensing, leave straw attached, folding over and attaching to white knob on dispensing trigger.
Store Aerosol Can Upright
Store aerosol can upright to avoid propellant leakage prior to use.
Unlike caulking materials and other sealants that are solid, heavy and non-insulating, foam sealants expand to form an outer skin that contains closed air cells that provide an effective barrier against energy loss. DAP Foam forms a permanent seal that will not shrink or pull away from the material it has bonded to, making foam the best sealant available against air and moisture infiltration.
Application surface must be clean, dry and free of all foreign material.
DAP Foam sealants are water-resistant, however they are not intended for use in submerged/below-waterline applications.
Yes. DAP Foam sealants meet the criteria of flame / smoke spread to be classified as a Class A foam. While these sealants are fire retardant (self-extinguishing when flame is removed), they are not intended to be used a fire barrier or fire stop.
No, DAP Foam insulating sealants are formulated to fill cracks, gaps and small voids. The project requires ventilation and humidity to cure. Larger voids may not allow enough air or moisture penetration for proper curing. DAP Foam products should not be used in any closed cavity that limits air/moisture exposure or the ability of the product the free rise (expand).
To store unused portion, bend straw back & attach to the knob atop the dispensing trigger. Store can upright below 90°F & above freezing temperature. Never store DAP Foam in your vehicle.
We recommend Landscape Foam for exterior applications. Landscape will not discolor or break down in sunlight like other foams. It is plant and fish safe, and the dark color blends into shadows well. MaxFill and Home Seal formulas may also be used indoors or outdoors. These foams should be painted when used outside in order to prevent discoloration and break down from UV exposure. DAP Foam can be painted in about one hour after dispensing. Touch 'n Foam No Warp, Fire Break and Mouse Shield should be used indoors only.
DAP Foam is reusable for up to three weeks after initial use. To store unused portion, bend straw back and attach to the knob atop the dispensing trigger. Store can upright below 90°F. Reuse product within three weeks. To re-use, cut the end off the straw (removing any cured foam), shake well and apply as directed.
