The product, in the report: Awning Guard-690 Plus is a chemical awning cleaner. It contains fluoro acrylate copolymer (EPA 70430P), aliphatic petroleum naphtha, heptane, and ethyl acetate.
Case reported to the NJ Poison Control Center on 3/7/13 of a 57 year old man with an acute inhalational injury secondary to prolonged exposure to chemical awning cleaner Awning Guard-690 Plus. Patient reported dizziness, dyspnea worsened with exertion, and coughing after using Awning Guard-690 Plus for 2.5 hours in his garage with inadequate ventilation (doors closed, but window open). There was no vomiting or diarrhea at home. Patient was taken to the emergency department; he was awake and lucid but somewhat lethargic on exam. He was noted to be afebrile, tachypneic to respiratory rate of 26 breaths/min, tachycardic to heart rate of 140 beats/min, and normotensive with a blood pressure of 126/71; pulse oximetry was 94% on 3L/min supplemental oxygen. Chest x-ray on 3/7/13 showed bilateral interstitial infiltrates, consistent with pulmonary interstitial edema. Patient was admitted to the critical care unit for supportive care. He continued to have coughing, productive of yellow sputum, and expiratory wheezing. He developed a leukocytosis with a white blood cell count over 20,000/mm3 and was started on [REDACTED], but remained afebrile. Supportive management included supplemental oxygen, albuterol, [REDACTED], and IV methylprednisolone. His symptoms improved and subsequent chest x-rays showed improvement of the infiltrates. He was discharged to home on 3/14/13.
Per the product’s MSDS, Awning Guard-690 Plus contains fluoro acrylate copolymer (EPA 70430P), aliphatic petroleum naphtha, heptane, and ethyl acetate. Known health hazards from inhalational exposure of this product include respiratory irritation, weakness, dizziness, nausea, loss of consciousness, and asphyxiation, per the MSDS. There is a known association reported in the literature between acute pulmonary toxicity from inhalation of fluoro copolymers as well as hydrocarbons without a fluoropolymer component.
