No one is insured against repairing paint, putty or foam. And if the first two substances are familiar and familiar to many generations, then what to do with the latter is not always clear. How to clean things from the marks of assembly foam?
Tool for cleaning the mounting gun
One of the easiest ways to remove the mounting foam from a thing is to use the liquid for mounting guns. This will help not only to clean the mounting gun, but also to remove the assembly mixture from the clothes. Even if the foam has dried, you can clean the thing to its original purity without damaging the fabric. For this it is necessary:
- to remove the improvised means( with a knife, for example) the frozen part of the foam from the surface of clothing;
- check the reaction of the fabric to the cleaner in an inconspicuous place to make sure that the paint on the clothes does not fade;
- soak the area of the lesion with an "antifoam" solution;
- should be applied to the desired place and leave a cloth impregnated with a solution for a short time;
- after the foam has softened, wipe off the trail with a brush or hard side of the sponge for the dishes;
- to wash a thing in the machine with an increased dose of washing powder.
Important!
Use medical or household gloves to prevent skin contact with chemical products. This will protect you from possible allergic reactions and will save the epidermis, besides washing your hands of chemicals is very difficult.
Solvents as an effective method of cleaning
At home, even when you are doing repairs yourself, there may not be enough liquid for the mounting gun at hand. Not everyone knows about it, and it's hard to think of how to clean a stain. In this case, you can use a common solvent for paint, "White Spirit" or acetone. If you do not have any of this and you do not know how to remove contamination from clothes, wash the stain better to try while it's fresh. You can remove it with a nail polish remover containing acetone, then brush off the rest of the stain and thus remove and wash it completely at home. Do not forget to test the reaction of the tissue to the remedy. The effect is better on non-stained specks of foam.

Using temperatures
High temperature quickly destroys the composition of the foam, you can wipe the stain marks off the clothes and clean, and then completely wash the dirt by keeping the thing in the sun. But this method is not very productive, too much time is required for it.
