Default expanding foam guns

Are the cans & guns standardized & interchangeable


Yes.

Do the foam cans seal themselves well (like gas cylinders) when taken
off the gun?


Err, usually!

Do you leave a can of cleaner on the gun when it's not
in use, or just blow cleaner through the gun & then leave it open?


If I'm not leaving a can of foam on it, then I tend to leave some
cleaner in it instead, it's difficult to say how long is "too long" to
leave a part used can of foam on it, days is fine, weeks is fine, months
usually causes [me] problems.
