I was thinking about getting some foam in a can to fill an open
hole in a pipe chase in my study. But when I looked at what
Screwfix are offering, I changed my mind.

Extract from the More Info. section:

Just use it. Don't forget these labels have to cover people who may
work with these substances day in, day out and are to protect the
manufacturer for the 1 in 1000 or those that have a problem.
Occasional exposure for short periods is almost zero risk.

Just make sure the area is ventilated, use the stuff and leave the
room.


I was worried, as I have just spent three weeks in hospital, for
respiratory troubles. So warnings about breathing problems got my
attention.

Keep a bag of Wickes fine surface filler that is out
ogf date (or get some plaster of paris), Stuff the main part
of the hole with any suitable filling material like cardboard/papermache
and overfill with quick setting filler.
