That night I got
dizzy, headaches, threw up.. The next morning huge sores were in my mouth,
throat, tubes, etc... By about noon the next day I was in the hospital. I
had close direct exposure to the chemical without any ventilation. The
doctior did say a couple more minutes of use and I would have dies as it
would have scarred my lungs.
Sounds like an isocyanate based solvent in the adhesive, IIRC that does
that sort of damage whereas cyanides are simple respiratory poisins like
CO and paraquat. I once used some paint to respray a car which was
isocyanate based, the instructions said that it should not be used
without an air-line respirator.
