Default Triche...

...I was working at a plastics company and they used a gallon of "triche" to dissolve a tube of silicon and then used it as a hand applied mould release for rotational moulding. Worked fantastic, but I cringed watching the guys use no mask and leather work gloves and a rag full of this stuff to apply it. The gloves became sodden and the fellows would just have that stuff soaking into their skin all day. I brought it and the WHMIS DATA sheet up to the boss and the 'severe' danger this stuff posed. I am not working there anymore.
If these chemicals are used correctly and safely , they are wonderous. But I have to wonder how many wage slaves die so the boss can have Cabriolet Porche instead of the plain old hardtop.
Hope your lymphs are okay now.
Incindentally, I mentioned it before, my uncle was a mechanic/welder/heavy duty mech all his life, gas is what you used to wash your hands and parts ( gas has the above 2 components in it by the way ). He died at a young 77 of 7 brain tumours. He had had bouts of cancer in his sixties also. Dying ain't no way to make a living, be careful ya'll, deliver pizza its safer.
