A few minutes ago I was in the metal working part of my small
electronic assembly service plant. I had been noticing a somewhat
familiar odor the last few weeks, but thought it was from something
one of my employees had been doing in the shop. Now I see a BIG mess
of red-black sticky stuff on two of the storage shelves.

My rules, and a bunch of pens, pencils, paper, and other stuff are
splattered and stuck in a puddle of the stuff.

It all came from a rather new spray can of DYKEM red. A pin hole
developed in the welded seam of the can, about 1 inch from the bottom.
Almost the entire can emptied itself onto the shelves and the stuff on
the shelves.

I can clean it up with denatured alcohol,but what a mess! I am going
to take the can back to Fastenall and see if they will give me a new
one.

The can of blue DYKEM looks ok, but I am going to store it inside a
leak proof container. Too late for the red.

Just thought you all need to know!

I have 3...Three cases of assorted spray Dykem. All brand new.

Each and every one has no pressure on the cans.

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"
