Cels Forum

Dear Forum,

Hi, again.  I have just been informed by someone who has
worked with xylene before.  He tells me that xylene is a
VERY corrosive and dangerous chemical to work with that can
corrode/dissolve simple polymers like acetate!  So if you
get something signed with a xylene pen, within 5-10 years,
it will make a hole in the shape of the signature!  So, if
you get your acetate signed STAY AWAY FROM PENS/MARKERS
WITH XYLENE IN IT (It's usually those smelly markers that
tell you it is harmful to breath them!)!  Thanks again to
the person who e-mailed me about this information!  I
greatly appreciate it!


Sincerely,

Sonia
