If you EVER use acetone, or similar hydrocarbon solvent indoors,
make DAMN SURE ALL gas pilot lights are turned OFF.

Failure to do so will almost certainly insure you will have a bomb
go off and a resulting fire.

Ask the flooring contractors or guys who reface cabinets with
laminate.

Isn't acetone a key ingredient in some nail polish removers? *All the

Acetone is one of the least toxic solvents.

I agree, but remember that acetone is a very volatile material, so it is
like gasoline, and can be dangerous.

Perhaps more volatile than gasoline, it will evaporate before your eyes.

How heavy are the fumes? What makes gasoline
suicide to use indoors is its weight, which makes
the fumes pool and concentrate in low areas.
