Everbuild Pinkgrip Dry Fix is a fast-curing adhesive foam for rapid plasterboard and insulation board installation. Available in boxes of 12 gun-applied 750ml cans at trade bulk pricing.
Everbuild Pinkgrip Dry Fix drywall foam is a purpose-built adhesive foam designed to speed up the installation of plasterboard, insulation boards, roof decking and floorboards. If you have spent any time dot-and-dabbing, you will appreciate why this exists. Traditional dot and dab adhesive is slow, messy, and needs time to grab before you can move on. Pinkgrip Dry Fix changes that. It cures fast, grabs firmly and lets you crack on with the next board rather than standing there holding it flat.
The foam is applied by gun in a continuous bead or dot pattern directly onto the substrate. It expands slightly on contact, filling minor surface irregularities and creating a solid bond across the board face. Because it is a foam adhesive rather than a cementitious compound, it is considerably lighter to work with, and there is no mixing, no water, and no waiting around for a heavy slump mix to stiffen up.
Where Pinkgrip Dry Fix Drywall Foam Gets Used
Pinkgrip Dry Fix is used by drylining contractors, insulation installers, and general builders wherever sheet material needs to go onto a wall or ceiling quickly. It is well suited to new build and refurbishment alike. The foam bonds to most masonry and block substrates, and works with standard plasterboard, thermal laminate boards and PIR insulation boards. Floorboard and roof decking applications are also possible where a flexible, gap-filling adhesive bond is needed rather than a rigid mechanical fix.
A Practical Note on Speed
The fast cure is the whole point of this product. You are not waiting for adhesive to dry before you can move on to the next fix or start taping. That translates directly into faster installs and less time holding boards in position. On a larger site with multiple rooms to dryline, that time saving adds up quickly.
Buying by the box of 12 brings the per-can cost down to a sensible trade rate. For any contractor running a plasterboard programme rather than a one-off repair, the bulk pack is the obvious way to buy everbuild pinkgrip dry fix drywall foam.
Pro Tip: Apply Pinkgrip in a zigzag bead pattern rather than dots to maximise contact area and reduce the chance of board drumming once set.
Pinkgrip Dry Fix is used across drylining and insulation work wherever boards need to be bonded to a masonry or block background quickly. It is particularly common in new build housing, commercial fit-out and refurbishment projects where labour time matters. Thermal laminate boards, standard tapered-edge plasterboard, PIR insulation boards, roof decking panels and floorboards all fall within its scope. It is a regular site product for drylining contractors and insulation installers who need a reliable, no-mix adhesive bond they can trust to hold first time.

Key Properties
Fast curing adhesive foam
Gun-applied 750ml canister
No mixing required
Slight expansion fills minor surface voids
Lighter and less waste than dot and dab
Suitable for walls and ceilings
Not suitable for: Not suitable for use on damp or wet substrates. Not recommended as a sole fixing for boards in high-load or structural applications where mechanical fixings are specified.
Ensure the substrate is clean, dry and free from dust, grease or loose material before applying. Load the 750ml canister into a suitable foam gun and adjust the nozzle to control bead size. Apply the foam in a continuous zigzag bead or in dot patterns across the back of the board or directly onto the wall, depending on your preferred method.
Offer the board up promptly after application and press firmly into position. The foam grabs quickly, so alignment matters on first contact. Support the board briefly until the initial cure holds it in place. Check flatness against adjacent boards before the foam fully sets. Allow to cure fully before finishing or loading the surface.
Check the substrate is clean, dry and structurally sound before starting

Apply foam in a continuous zigzag bead or dot pattern to the board back or wall face
Offer the board up immediately and press firmly into position
Check alignment and flatness against adjacent boards straight away
Hold or prop briefly until initial grab prevents movement
Allow full cure before taping, finishing or applying any load to the surface
Can Pinkgrip Dry Fix replace dot and dab adhesive completely?
For many standard plasterboard applications to masonry backgrounds, yes. It is faster to apply, requires no mixing, and the cure time is quicker than traditional dot and dab. On very uneven walls where significant build-up is needed, conventional dab adhesive may still be the better choice as it can be applied in larger volumes to pack out uneven areas.
Does the foam require mechanical fixings as well?
In most standard drylining applications the adhesive foam provides sufficient bond on its own, but always refer to the board manufacturer's guidance and any applicable site specification. Where boards are being fixed to ceilings or where the spec calls for mechanical retention, supplementary fixings should be used alongside the adhesive.
Pinkgrip Dry Fix is a one-component polyurethane-based adhesive foam supplied in a 750ml pressurised canister for use with a foam applicator gun. It cures by reaction with atmospheric moisture and expands slightly on application to improve substrate contact. The cured foam provides a strong, lightweight adhesive bond suited to sheet material installation on masonry and concrete backgrounds.
