The Sherwin-Williams Co. and the The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission have announced the recall of Thermo-Tec Hi-Heat Coating aerosol cans. They have even gone so far as to request that consumers not even handle the cans.
These cans can over pressurize and explode causing serious injury. There have been reports of serious injury, including a broken jaw and a shattered eye socket.
Thermo-Tec Hi-Heat aerosol coating is used to color and protect Thermo-Tec automotive exhaust wrap. These cans were sold at automotive supply stores from August 2005 to June 2007.
If you have one of the recalled aerosol cans please contact Sherwin-Williams at 888-304-3769
between 7:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. CT Monday through Friday or between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. CT Saturday, or visit the Sherwin-Williams Web site.
The cans are so hazardous that a representative will be sent to your home to retrieve the can from you. They do not want these cans handled by consumers at all. You will then be sent a $15 check after the can is retrieved.
According to Sherwin-Williams the contact number in the CSPC press release is incorrect. They have the corrected number on their site and I have that number here as well (above). There is a picture of the recalled product in the press release.
