Guest guest Posted November 10, 2002 Report Share Posted November 10, 2002 Boy, you've got guts! I use goggles, rubber gloves and a gas mask. That way I can watch what I'm doing and not breath in fumes. It only takes me a minute to put them on and take them off, and I guess I'd rather be safe than sorry. > I will probably be sent to the corner, but like a lot of soap makers, I do > not do the goggle, glove, toxic waste protective gear.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2002 Report Share Posted November 11, 2002 OT: when he started teaching, they went into the chemical closet at the school, (kids were not present) to clean out the retiring teacher's chemicals and take inventory....they found Picric Acid, which in it's liquid form is ok...but this had crystalized..in that form it is a level four explosive! They had to evacuate the school and all the houses for 1/2 mile because it could have vaporized everything if jostled! Hazmat wouldn't touch it, the Military bomb squad had to dispose of it...good thing he didn't just throw it in the trash! Sorry...I just had to tell that:) Take care:) >>>> Oh My Goodness!!!! That is something! Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
