Re: How to Safely (and not so safely) Dispose of Oil-Soaked Rags
posted: 9:28 am on May 13thI would say that the little bit of smoke a paper towel or two produces on occasion is much less than what my neighbor produces mowing his lawn or my house would, going up in smoke.
I could produce emissions if I took up smoking.
But, I do appreciate the advise.
Re: How to Safely (and not so safely) Dispose of Oil-Soaked Rags
For forty years I've kept it safe and simple.
posted: 6:15 pm on May 12thI have a metal pail outside the shop and I burn anything that comes in contact with flammables(solvent, varnish, wax, whatever) immediately. That means rags, brushes, Q-Tips, stir sticks, etc.
Just put it in the pail(small amounts at a time) and use the butane grill lighter.
