Disaster! Expanding Foam All over neighbours UPVC Door ( How removed it )

Today I had one of those experiences you do not want to experience to often.

I was using some expanding foam on my extension inside and I had about 1/4 can left that i needed to use up.

Outside on the front of my extension, I had a gap on the Fascia Board I thought I could fill and use up the last of the foam in the can.

Now this is where my Sunday turned into one of those embarrassing heart sinking moments.

I climbed the ladder inserted the expanding foam nozzle down the side of the Fascia Board.

The foam expanded as expected but I did not take into account the wind blowing as it was a little blustery.

Now this is what happened.............

As the foam expanded it began to bulge out of the Fascia Board, This was fine as I had planned on it just falling on the floor if any excess protruded on my property..

This is not what happened................

I watched the wind blow a large lump of the expanding foam. To my horror it disappeared over my neighbour’s wall. I quickly hopped over wall crossing my fingers and looked at their UPVC Porch and door

You guessed it.  The lump of foam had been blown onto the top of their door area and had spread all down the Window, Door, Door Handel,  Cladding and even all over the door bell button and ended up on the floor just outside the door.

Now if you have ever used this stuff you will understand the fix I was in.
