Compressed Air

I think that could be because they accidentally packaged some Chinese farts during manufacture. Good thing those cans aren't made in Texas, eh?

I got mine from Harbor Fright.

Something like difluoroethane, perhaps?

For inhalation: Move person to fresh air.

Skin or eyes: Flush with water. If irritation persists, call a physician or poison control center immediately.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call physician immediately.

oh yeah... and it's flammable too.

If so, I'd bet you've misnamed your reaction to it.

Hmmmm!

Yes, I don't enjoy using the stuff. I'm "chemically sensitive" in general. Working with plywood gives me even more grief by comparison.

If I use the spray cans indoors, I'll just experience a mild shortness of breath for 15 or 20 minutes. If I put a fan on, open the window, and work fast and get out of the room, I can get away with it. Frankly, I'd rather throw a few bucks at the problem and avoid the excitement.

The previously mentioned refillable cans might work (from HB). They didn't however, say whether they could be filled with air. I'll investigate.

Thanks, Bill

use a liquid to absorb the pressure? I'm reminded of my old "water filled rocket" (that one pumped up, and then released) that I had when I was a kid. It didn't work well with just air. Great fun for $.99 (yes, cents!).

I don't know.

This ain't a water rocket, it's a spray can. Put water in--water comes out. Put air in and air comes out. It has a valve stem on the side just like a tire and you pump it up like a tire.

If it doesn't work, a brush probably would.

Actually as I think it through... water is NOT compressible (or, only inconsequentially so).

In this town Murphy is an optometrist

(Well, OK, he's an optician)

The darkroom department in photo stores sell huge enema bulbs, usually used to blow off film and lenses. Same idea as a turkey baster, but with a larger bulb and shorter, stiffer tip. They also sell delicate little ones with a soft brush at the tip, but I find these to be less useful.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try one of these refillable aerosal cans.

The manual says fillable to 90 psi. Think a normal manual bicycle pump will provide sufficient pressure?

Thanks, Bill

Bill, Depends on the pump - a good floor pump will go past 110 psi without any trouble. Kerry

That's what I was curious about. Thanks! Bill
