I have been doing quite a bit of lathe work using a kool-mist this week

They spec sheet says it totally safe, but does anyone know something
different?
Maybe just the fact that I have been breathing a lot of water vapor
could make it easier to get sick?
I just saw an article on the subject, but can't
find it now. *The gist was that there seemed to
be more asthma-like symptoms and complaints where
it was used. *The problems were thought to be tramp
oil and mist out of ph specification rather than
uncontaminated fresh mist.
The one time I used it I got sick. The oil in it seemed to coat
my lungs and make trouble. I'll never use misted coolants again.
