I decided to use this to fill a massive gap at the bottom of my airing cupboard and it looks a mess, though it did the job! How can I make it look more presentable and less like a foam machine?
You can cut of any excess easily with a long sharp craft blade.
Well i have a 31L tank and it has recently started to foam up. I have had this tank for well over 3 months now and it is home to 20 guppy frys. I don’t think i over feed them as they eat all i put in 1 minute or two and i don’t use a dechlorinater or put any chemicals in the water. I have done a 50% water change every day to see if i could solve this problem for a week now but there is no change. Please help.
and yes i do have a filter
i use R.O water brought from a shop and that has all the chlorine taken out. And all the tests have come back 0 for ammonia and so on.
You must find out what is the cause of the foaming first. Foam usually means you have an ammonia spike, and if you’re not using dechloraminator that’s probably why.
You really must use a dechloraminator if your community uses chloramines rather than chlorine. It doesn’t evaporate out from just sitting like chlorinated water does. Chloramine is basically chlorine with ammonia added to prevent the chlorine from evaporating out.
If you are doing a 50% water change every day with water that has not been treated you are putting chlorine into your tank.
What kind of filter are you using? Take a sample of your water to the pet store for testing if you don’t have your own test kit and find out what’s off- it will probably be a high ammonia level. (Anything higher than 0 is dangerously high and potentially fatal.)
You’re changing the water way too often… water changes should only be 20%.
During mattress and pillow shopping, we couldn’t get a straight answer from the salespeople. What is the difference between memory foam mattress/pillow and Italian visco? Thanks.
I see where the website www.myfoammattresses.com talks about memory foam and visco, but I don’t see any delineation as to what the difference is between the two. Is one just name brand, and the other generic? Thanks.
sorry, www.myfoammattress.net is the correct website.
Memory foam and visco elastic foam are different names for the same product.
I experimented at home and found out how to make the drink but I have no idea how to make the pineapple foam that goes on top.
You could give this a try:~~~~~~~~~~ For the pineapple foam: In food processor fitted with metal blade, puree pineapple until smooth. Transfer to bowl and stir in lecithin. Using hand-held immersion blender, blend until very frothy.
I work in my underwear in my home office and my chair now reeks. I pass gas sometimes in the morning when I sit in my office. I am seriously looking for a safe and effective way to get the smell out of the memory foam. PLEASE – only serious responses!
Serious responses, that is almost as funny as the question. LOL
I think you need to clean with a disinfectant and put the chair outside so it can air out, for goodness sakes please put on pants and the pillow idea is great too. For someone with a farting problem, you should do all 4 suggestions.
I dropped a pint of beer on my memory foam mattress, and am wondering how i can clean it.
Any ideas.?
Cheers.
If you can get it to a shower or tub…put the part that has the beer and run soap and water through it…running water through it will remove the beer …..Hanging it up to dry……If you can put it outside and run a water hose over it and remove the beer that way would help …the sun can dry it out
I’m looking for cell foam or any thin comfortable foam for my motorcycle to replace the current foam. I was told this makes a dramatic difference in seat height. I live in Michigan can anyone direct to any store near here or any major department stores that would sell this?
car shops and motorcycle shops don’t sell foam. Use your brain! I’m just looking for foam, not foam modded to a motorcycle seat shape, just foam!
kb what store did you get this from? Are you talking about something like this?

I’ve called about 7 different fabric shops and no one has this foam, let alone knows what I’m talking about.
Thanks kb, I will go tomorrow and see if they have this in 1/2". If not do think just doubling this up will work?
Try you local motorcycle seat foam shop, any of them will have it.
I normally shower in the morning and use body wash to clean my body. The body wash foams up in the body sponge I use when I do shower in the mornings. Though sometimes I do shower in the afternoons or evenings on the weekends … and when I do, the body wash doesn’t foam up at all. When I squeeze the body sponge no foam comes out all, but just liquid soap and water. It’s as if there really isn’t any soap in the body sponge at all.
Why is this? This is really weird. Can anyone explain this to me.
A worn out water softener?
Should I still us a poly sheeting over the inside wall?
(Using foam sheets, not expanding/sprayed foam)
insulation with a poly sheeting or kraft faced fiberglass? Which would you recommend?
Yes you should because of possible condensation. Wherever warmth from inside meets cold air from the outside you should use the vapor barrier. Especially in your basement.
I am re-doing my dining room chairs and would like to know if 5lb. density 2.5 in. memory foam would be a good choice or should I just go with medium firm 2.5 in. regular foam. I am going to wrap the foam in batting before I put the fabric on the chairs. Also would 2.5 inches be thick enouph or should I do 3 inches? Please give details as to which foam would be better and why.
I would stay away from memory foam for dining chairs.
Folks move around, get up, sit down too often for there to be any benefit to having memory foam on a chair, and I can see where it would be a major PITA (literally!) to not be able to turn in my chair comfortably or to have to "REsit" myself in the molded-to-my-bottom cushion after getting up to get more rolls, or whatever.
I’d use regular medium density foam and I wouldn’t use more than a 2" slab of it… especially if you’re going to wrap the foam w/ batting before applying fabric.
If the cushion is too high/bulky you risk folks having to dangle their legs off the edge of the chair (think of Lily Tomlin’s "Edith Ann" sitting in the big chair), or having an uncomfortable pressure point at the back of their thighs that could cause legs to go numb.
