Q: What is the foam made of?
A: The foam is a product called Foam Daddy. It is a non-toxic fire retardant.Q: How do you make it blue?
A: We dye the foam/water solution blue using a dye called Hi-Light Blue. It is a non toxic spray indicator dye.Q: Is the blue color permanent?
A: The dye is not permanent. However we cannot guarantee it will fully wash out of all materials. The foam solution is bio-degradable, non-toxic, non-staining, and hypoallergenic. This foam is noted for how safe it is for people.Q: Why do I need to shower before leaving the event?
A: We ask that each participant shower off before leaving the event area to be respectful to campus, the community, and local housing. While the foam and dye wash out with water, not all surfaces and materials are easy to wash. We ask each student to help us maintain this event by being good neighbors to community surrounding the event. -
