Best part of living so close to work is definently going home at lunch on a day like this so I can scream and unwind.

I'm also deeply amused by a glass pumpkin on my table - it's got the figs which I've been paint stripping in it. I filled it with Castrol SuperClean, which went in a very light lavendar colour.

About 17 hours later, it's a deep blood red. And at 7ish tonight, I'll pull the figs out, rinse, brush, and the paint should be all gone, and the bloody paint thinner goes down the toilet.

It always helps to have somewhere you can blast the music and dance around naked to de-stress whenever work gets to be too much . . . wait, that's what I do. Hee. ^^;; ;D

Doom Pumpkin! *points* O.O Take a picture before you throw it out?

*grins* I probably will.

Paint thinner? You mean like Turpentine? That sort of can't go down the toilet, I think. It can contaminate the groundwater, and the legal way to get rid of it is to talk to your local hazardous waste collection site.

Um. Well, engine cleaner, actually, but it doesn't say anything about taking it to hazmat...

I better call someone, though, to be sure.

Don't bother if you're talking anything under a liter. An extended courtesy flush should more than suffice.

All in all, about 12 oz. or so. Maybe 16 at the most.

Regardless - don't put it in the toilet. Sewers and septic systems are not designed to handle such contaminants. Take it to Wal-Mart or a local oil-change spot and ask them to dispose of it with their waste oil.

Ok, done.
