Stand and Seal Health Problems

[oofda]

Thanks Bud,
Good point. I will have to make some changes.

Just an update. Plantiff depositions are starting in August.

If there's ANYONE who hasn't heard yet, the NY TImes ran a front page story on Stand N Seal today. More accurately, it was about the CPSC, but the SNS problem was used to highlight the failures of the CPSC:

EDIT

For those unable to read the article from that link, try this one: After U.S. recall, a dangerous product stayed on the shelves - International Herald Tribune

It was on the front page of our local paper also. It didn't give a date this doctor did it though so I thought it may have been recently. I wonder if Depot still has any of it on the shelves?

All cans were supposed to have been removed from the shelves months ago, like earlier this past summer or late spring.

Bill, that link is no good for the average person. Can you post the first sentence (exactly) so I can find a sutable link all our members will be able to read the article from?

Thanks.

DENVILLE, N.J. — Walter E. Friedel’s plans to waterproof the tile floors of his hot tub room using Stand ’n Seal, a do-it-yourself product sold at his local Home Depot, promised to be a quick weekend project, one he could wrap up in time to catch the Giants football game on a Sunday afternoon.

I don't know what happened. I've been into that article about 2-3 dozen times this evening. Now all of the sudden they want a registration!!

Go figure!

Daris-- I take it your local paper is the Denver Post?

Bill, I just hit the link and read the entire article w/o any problem.

The New York Times has a limitation on their site that prevents many people, but not all, from reading the content. To have unfettered access, you must be a registered member and logged in.

Here are a couple of links that should lead to the article Bill mentioned. If one doesn't work, please try another. They are all supposed to be the same story.

If ANY of you happen to be in Home Depot, and see any cans of Stand N Seal on the shelves, please get in touch with either me or Shawn with a location. Shawn MAY ask you to buy the can, as well, for the receipt.

I generally avoid the boxes but will stop in at any and all I pass during my travels.

Our local Home Depot now has a new spray sealer product (offered by Custom Building Products) if my memory serves me correctly.

Sure it's not Tile Lab's Aim N Seal,?

[Bud Cline]

Not sure of anything!!!!

Like I said: "If my memory serves". And sometimes it doesn't.
