I had a gallon can of the Zinsser Sanding Sealer shellac sitting on the concrete garage floor for several months. As I was walking by today, I noticed a goo around the can and it turned out to be shellac oozing out of the can.
After transfering the contents to another can, it was easy to see the hole in the bottom of the can. It was a small hole about an inch in from the rim. In the area where the product was leaking, there was an approximately
3/4"x1/2" depression in the concrete. I'm thinking some chemical was spilled there (it's near a sink, so who knows? It's also near the garbage cans where bags of pool shock are disposed of.) and the can failed.Just to be sure, has anyone else seen a can fail in this manner? We've had
100F heat with 20% humidity for the last month.I've cleaned up the affected area on the floor as best I can. Any problems with just leaving what didn't wipe up on the concrete?
