TEN WAYS TO
LIVE WITH GASOLINE
Once gasoline is pumped into a portable container for use around the home,
fire and explosions begin to happen. People are just not aware of its extreme
f lammability and often v iola t e every rule in the book when handling gasoline.
Are you awar e of the ease wit h which gasoline igni t es? H ere are ten ways to
avoid getting burned by gasoline :
I' Don 't s t o r e it in the wrong contai n er. If everyone stored gasoline in a UL-
approved container, gasoline fires would be dramatically reduced in number.
An approved container has a broad base that makes it almost impossible t o tip
rc over and a spring-loaded cap that prevents the inadvertent release of flammable
vapor.
D o n 't use it to c le an pa int brus h es. In most paint brush fires the gasoline is
touched off by a s tove pilot light, but in one case it was a candle. Any hardware
or paint store sells paint brush cleaning solvents that clean even better than
gasoline with less danger of a fire.
Don't s m o k e w h ile handling it. A cigarette or match can easily set off a
gasoline explosion or fire. Never smoke in a gas station.
Don 't u s e it n ea r an ignition s ource. Judging from newspaper accounts,
r water heater pilots are t he most commo n ignition source for gasoline fires. Some
fires occur when teenagers bring their bikes o r motorcycles into a basement or
[ kitchen to clean parts with gasoline. The volatile vapor finds its way to the pilot
li g ht o f a stove or water heater. N o one has an excuse to bring gasoline into living
quarters, since there is no legitimate use for gasoline inside.
t Don't use it to c lean floors . A F ort Worth man using a gasoline-soaked rag
t o clean floors lit a cigarette. The vapor exploded, and he was burned over 90
percent of his body.
Don 't flip a s w itc h . If you smell gasoline vapor, ventilate but don't provide
t an ignition source. Gasoline vapor'" needs only the sma llest spark to ignite. The
arc from an electric swi tch is enough .
L Don 't mistake it for something else . An eleven-year-old boy was badly
~
burned when he threw what he thought was water on a fire. It was gasoline.
Gasoline shou ld always be s tored in a property marked contai ner and out o f
reach of those too young to r ead and heed labels.
D o n 't u s e it to clean clothes . An Iowa woman burned her face and hands
l
i
when gasoline-soaked clothing in a waShing machine produced vapor that was
ignited by a spark from the motor. Some uninformed people also use it to dry-
clean clothes-with disastrous results.
I Don't use it to start a fire in the fire plac e . One Montana family did. When
the flames finally burned out, only the fireplace was left standing.
r Don't leav e it uncapped. In a Michigan fire , a two-year-old boy died and
l three other members o f his family wer e burned when vapor from an uncovered
can of gaso line stored in a stairwell was ignited by a gas refrigerator.
