Mr. Clean - Erase`

As a complete aside, there was a TV program here that talked about the level of well known carcinogens in the ME. We no longer have any in the house - but they sure did work!! No motherhood here, just thought it was interesting.

Cheers

Hatari,

We looked at that aspect before posting our ME recommendation. It's been awhile, but IIRC the carcinogens are chemically bonded within the ME. Used dry, they cannot be released.

Just my recollection, I'm not the chemist in the house.

OMG!! Were all going to die!!

Doug is right. The chemical in question is Formaldehyde, but in a harmless form called a monomer. It is combined with some other chemicals in a process called polymerization. In other words it is PLASTIC. All plastics are polymers that start from some gaseous or liquid petroleum product that when processed, all the molecules 'bundle' together (polymerize) to form plastic.

Take your vinyl records. They are poly(vinyl chloride). Obviously your LP's aren't Toxic, but the raw material - vinyl chloride - is a very poisonous gas.

One last word of advice, as has been discussed here at lenght. No "Strokin", only "Dunkin" with the Mr Clean ME!
