Public Health Warning

When clearing nozzles of spray cans, point can away from self.
That's right, Soviet Armour - I'm looking at you!
Half an hour of soaking my head in the sink and applying cold compresses to the eyes and they still sting like buggery!
Got it working again though...

  4. You got the can working again though, which must be great consolation for nearly blinding yourself :-)

  6. It's happened to us all, Nate, at some time.....although maybe not quite as drastically! Good news that you've only been delayed for half an hour. Now, back to those brushes, Sir!
