The product, in the report: Reversible shiplap / beaded planking pvc
I bought pvc beaded planking at Lowe’s. I have used other brands in the past. This brand was Echon. When you cut it with a jig saw or circular saw it emitted an odor identical to a natural gas leak. I immediately turned off all electric and opened windows even though it was 20 degrees out. The odor lingered for about an hour. I began to feel light headed and ill. I spent the next 30 minutes outside. The product upc is 850038874261
