I developed some chemical sensitivity after working in photo darkrooms starting at age 15. Doing some home CPVC plumbing work I got the MSDS for the cleaner and glue for that and MEK was one of the main ingredients. I suggest anybody who is going to use that to check out the MSDS on it to know what you are dealing with. It's easy now due to the internet, back then I had to call the mfg and they sent me the papers! Also, when working with a lot of chemicals pay attention to what kind of gloves you use to protect your skin. I worked in a lab once, where the chemists were using chloroform with gloves that looked substantial but provided little resistance to that chemical. One of the chemists developed skin cancer on her hand. That's what got people looking into it. Edward
