fiberlay expanding foam HELP!!

[OCD Solutions]

Did I miss something? I just poured an entire quart kit into my SN and It's still not full and it appears to have stopped expanding.

What have I done? Could it be bad, I just opened it today but it has been on the shelf for several months sealed.

Help!!

To refoam the entire tray I think you ill need more than a quart.

yeh it took me more than a quart but i cant remember how much

I just ordered more... I initially panicked thinking that I rushed the pour and it was still going to continue to expand slowly and buckle the hull and pop my new footholds out. It's been an hour or so now and it's all good.

Man that stuff puts off some heat...

did you completely refoam or just do the footholds area?

From what uscomposites says its going to take alot more than a quart. I got a gallon and thats supposed to do 4 cubic feet which is roughly the amount needed.

I am completely refoaming the entire rear of the ski.

Now when you say a quart, do you meen in total or a quart kit which is actually made up of two parts being 1 quart each?

Esentially I've poured in 2 quarts of actual liquid. which should expant to roughly 22 times it's volume.

Is it 2lb, 3lb, or 4lb foam?

To refoam an entire SUperjet takes approximately 3.5-4 cuft of foam.

I used a 5 cuft kit of 3lb/cuft foam (I am guessing one gallon of each part, so 2 gallons).
So I used about 1.5 gallons at least.

It is essential that the two parts are mixed very well.

No the proper way is to pour it in and then shake the ski around real well. Haha
