    Reaction to Slo-Jet

    I was wiring half a dozen epees last Saturday and had a strange reaction to the fumes from the glue. I was using Slo-Jet, a CA type glue in a well ventilated area. (Open window with an exhaust fan) All of a sudden my eyes started to burn and my breathing felt like a mild asthma attack. The eyes felt better in a few minutes but it took about eight hours for my breathing to return to normal.

    Has anyone else had this type of reaction?

    I think I'm going to switch back to Duco cement although Slo-Jet works better. It was a little scary.
    Regards,
    Chris

    Do you have asthma?

    Duco to me smells more fummy to me than Zap a Gap, which is cyano-acrlate?? i believe. I've always wondered how venaliated an area had to be. I used to do a lot of armoring in a small room with just one door.
