Well, she wasn’t being skimpy or it would not have been strong enough to do that; must have misread the proper amount of water to add or else thought she’d be helpful and make it stronger under the “more is better theory.” The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
I think her mistake was adding too little water. Foaming sanitizer is like the foamy Purell we get all over the place. It’s meant for contact with skin without causing any problems. It’s dispensed in small amounts by dispensers that turn it into foam in the same way that cappuccino machines turn a little milk into a bunch of foam.
Sounds to me like a crime of ignorance. The sanitizer was probably meant to be used on surfaces, never human skin.
You can just buy rubbing alcohol and put it in small spray bottles.
Yeah, I remember that...being posted on March 10.
Depending on the price, she may have thought she was doing a community service rather than exploitation.
On the flipside, the FDA won’t let whiskey manufacturers make hand sanitizer if they don’t add a bitterant to it ... so we can’t get new real, safe hand sanitizer supplies on the market. That forces the ignorant to make their own and often go wrong.
Would have been helpful to identify the state (New Jersey) without the need to click on the link. Not a big deal (though it happens a lot), just helpful ... besides, who the hell knows where River Vale is anyway? Cheers! (and thanks for posting the article)
