Thanks all I was just concerned that there may be a chemical reaction and melt the foam.
I am going to foam fix my plywood bulkheads and fibreglass for strength afterwards.

I'm using expanding foam for the rear corners or the cockpit and also as sound deadening... I chose the fireprooof stuff as I had some in my garage from a previous building job!
They use expanding foam to create car audio speaker boxes and door panels as you can shape it quite easily with a knife when it is set.

That's what prompted my question, was on my mind and then I saw your thread
