How badly anyone was hurt

  • Hurt, care not known 1 CPSC: Injury, Level of care not known

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. Hurt, care not known

    Made Mar 6, 2012, sent to the company Mar 14, 2012, published by CPSC Apr 4, 2012

    The product, in the report: Speedball Arts Speedy Kids Washable Fingerpaint, Purple Grape, 16 oz

    We purchased 4 16 oz tubs of Speedball “Speedy Kids” Washable Fingerpaint in fall 2010 at Pearl Art in San Francisco when the store was going out of business. We didn’t open the paints until today. Three tubs were sealed with a double-layer seal imprinted with the words “sealed for freshness.” Those three tubs were fine. The fourth was sealed only with a thin foil seal. The paint was chunky and had a foul odor than made us nauseated quickly (both my 4-year-old daughter and me). We closed it back up and decided we would not use it at all.

    I have also reported this to the manufacturer, Speedball Arts.
