I had a bad experience once with brake cleaner and a vacuum cleaner.

Cleaning a grease spot on a carpet in my car and then after that I vacuumed the mats. It killed my vacuumcleaner as the fumes from the brakecleaner caught fire inside the it with a loud boof. Not a big problem since I was outside and the vacuumcleaner was out of the car.

It looked liked it had got on afterburner :rofl:

Hope nobody minds,(which I doubt) but I posted this over at FGMCC.com just to let the "boys" know. We do tend to get lax in the saftey part of things.

It should be posted as many places as possible. I did see it at Teamchevelle.com and teamcamaro.com and protouring.com. The more people aware of it the less chance of another accident.

Ive always used Brake Clean before welding... not anymore!!!! Im a lucky man.

Thanks for posting this. I really appreciate it man!

Thanks!
