The object of any spray foam or coatings project is to confine the sprayed material to the intended target such as the walls or roof. However, in the real world, not all of the sprayed material always makes it to the exact place the applicator, customer or job itself calls for. Most targets for overspray are windows bath fixtures cars and other contractors tools. There are several reasons for overspray, a missed aimed trigger pull, spraying too far from your target , wind, etc.
