Re: How to Safely (and not so safely) Dispose of Oil-Soaked Rags
Hear, hear!
posted: 3:04 am on May 13thSome time ago I stripped and oiled a customer's cedar door. Running late and being in a rush to get home, I stuffed all the oily waste into a plastic bag which I just tossed onto the passenger seat of my truck.
Arriving at home just fifteen or so minutes later, I grabbed hold of the bag without thinking, to dispose of it properly, and burnt my hand badly, so intense was the heat.
I can only imagine that only a few moments delay could have easily resulted in a moving vehicle fire.
I learned a good lesson that day and was pretty lucky to have avoided a severe penalty for my lapse.
