Does anybody know what "Great Stuff" is regarding using it to direct water flows in waterfalls. If so, where do you get it? Thanks!
Jeffrey

In response to message posted by Jeffrey727:

Hi Jeffery,
"Great Stuff" is a canned expandable foam that is used to fill in cracks in foundations, walls, etc. It is available in most hardware and home improvement stores, as well many large discount outlets.

Two things I think it is important to know when using it; 1. Anything will get stuck in it including skin, the cat, children, 2. Once you start a can use all you need because I have never found a way of spraying it again once the stuff has hardened in the nozzle. (If anyone knows how to do that please share the tip!)

You can take a nail and work the "great stuff" out of the nozzle and the straw. It is very simple. I have had to do it NUMEROUS times. of course you have to wait til it dries! smile

» JannCorley - Re: How to re-use a can of Great Stuff

I came across a can that I had used once and thought I would have to throw it out...But, all you have to do is pull the dried "stuff" from the end of the nozzle, unscrew the entire plastic nozzle...then take a long wooden skewer and push the rest of the dried "stuff" through. Screw the nozzle back on, shake it up, and use it again! Hope it works for you...Jann Corley
