Re: [A/S] Pressure Treated Wood



When epoxy cures it is totaly harmless.when we are worring about harmeful 
chemicals in the trailer inveroment rember that plywood and partical board 
are glued up with a formilhide base glue most finishing materials are basicly 
harmful. I nthe older trailers the tile was vinel asbotes. trying to 
eliminate all things that might be harmful  is futile. When I listen to the 
worries I wonder how I lived 75 years growing up with led based paint using 
led arsenic to spray the potatoes to control the bugs using powered asbestos 
to make fiberglass putty breathing exhaust fumes from autos using leaded 
gasoline.I used cyanide powder to heat treat steel .and the list goes on and 
on. This is by no means to say we should use all care posable when working 
with these materials but in the old days  we didn't know the danger 
associated  with many things that we used in our eatery day life. but we 
should not be paranoid eater.
