Can I leave Fox Blocks forms exposed to ultraviolet rays for an extended period (months)?
Yes, but you will notice a light dusting on the surface and a yellowing discoloration of the forms. This does not indicate any detrimental effects to the ICFs.

The powdery film must be removed with soap and water before the application of a synthetic stucco finish or waterproofing membrane.
