Construction Industry/Best tool to scrape off polyurethane

Expert: - 7/5/2009


Question
I've been remodeling my roof and I filled the interior of my roof with hard polyurethane foam, but I need to scrape off the excess foam from the surface of the horizontal beams. Right now I use a saw to scrape the foam off. I wonder if there are any more efficient automatic/electric/air-powered industrial tools to scrape off this foam. Thanks in advance

Answer
Hi John;Sorry, I can't help you.  I don't know why your question was transferred to me.  I am a floor covering expert.  Three suggestions, though.  First, ask your question again to the home construction expert.  Second, visit a store that sells that foam, get the name of the manufacturer of the foam, 'google' that manufacturer and visit the website where there should be contact information, which is usually an 800#.  Call it and speak to their technical services dept. to ask your question from the correct source, the manufacturer.  Third, contact a home builder in your area and ask them your question.

Cordially,

John Michaels

Expertise

We are a floor covering inspection service and a floor covering specifying service. We inspect all types of floor coverings in every city and town in all 50 States and Canada, for manufacturing, installation, or maintenance related problems. We also specify, so when someone is about to choose a floor covering for a residential or commercial installation, after we find out, from them, the particulars about the installation, we can suggest the proper product, installation method, and maintenance method to provide optimum life of the product. (Note that in your B2B Category, we did not find any heading related to our business, so we just chose the Construction category). So if someone has a problem with the performance, installation, or maintenance of any floor covering, we can give suggestions, without a formal inspection, the possible causes of the prolems.

Experience

We have been in manufacturing, installation, and maintenance, of all types of residential and commercial floor coverings, for many years, and for the past 13 years, we just inspect and specify.
