Default Will Butyrate disolve foam?

I would like to finish a plane that has foam-core wings sheeted in balsa with silk and Butyrite and was wondering if I got any Butyrite on the foam or it seaped through the balsa, will it disolve the foam?

Thanks

It would have a very negative impact on the foam very quickly. Similar to what happens when you get ca glue or acetone on foam. Say goodbye to the foam.
