Ok I give up. I guess dozen's of craft places are wrong.
What about when this stuff is put under a heat press or iron, fumes are still let off.

AustinJeff--Speedball says in the Material Safety Data sheet: "This material has been evaluated by a Toxocologist as per intended usage. Do not deviate from intended usage!"
Yes, they actually use an exclamation point. Are they just being closed-minded? | |  | |  | |
Wow you truly do go by what every sheet says as they were written for liability, not truly safety. Granted MSDS sheets are important, but you don't think they had four lawyers in the room when they wrote that?
Give me a break, Do you know a iron was never intended to dry paint or ink, read the brochure next time you buy one. It states it's not it's intended purpose and doing so can result in bodily injury.
Ever let little ones near your chemicals or equpment? I'm sure some of you have, that's a OSHA no-no. The manufacturers also advise against this in their manuals.
Also the heat press was never to heat or dry ink, read the brochure, that is an un-approved use of the piece of equipment.
So before you judge me, look at some of the things you may be doing that aren't quite what was intended for use.
I'm really dissapointed in te responses here. This forum has been nothing but supportive, honest and helpful. If someone did something obviously hurtful or dangerous, they were called out. But doing something such as this, being chided is ridiculous.
If everyone went by the safety precaution, lawyer speak, we'd all be a very bland society.
In fact let someone use a heat press to dry the ink, then have it break, have them tell the manufacture what they were doing and see how fast they deny any liability for fixing it.
