Siroflex PU foam drywall adhesive - an expanding foam with low
expansivity. I'm not sure if it would attack EPS (jablite) but I'm happy
to try a bit for you.


Watching a DG installer using foam the other day I was struck by how
well behaved the stuff was when applied with a gun rather than an
aerosol. I'm going to shell out for one, even if I only use it once in a
blue moon. It also means you don't have to throw away part used containers


Yes - and the foam I mentioned is exceptionally well behaved if you're
careful - it expands very little beyond the initial application. Sticky as
a sticky thing though which is good for the job and bad for your clothes!

If you were in the habit of using 2 types of foam it might even be worth
buying 2 guns - you really can leave the gun attached and it doesn't gunk
up save for the outside of the nozzle.
