The product, in the report: Chandelier Cleaner (spray 32ounce)
1. The time of product use was probably more in-line with 15 minutes, not 5. 2. In addition to the injuries contained in the report, areas also affected include: *shins & calves of both legs *both forearms *right wrist *inside of right ring finger, which occurred while simply inspecting the bottle label 3. The pH test strips used were a product of MedLab www.medlabdiagnostics.org . The strips, when immersed in the WJ Haggerty & Sons cleaning solution instantaneously indicated the maximum pH reading of 9.0, although that products instructions specify that it is intended only for urine and saliva. 4. The referenced cream actually used “[REDACTED], not “[REDACTED]”. 5. No immediate medical attention or first aid was received, other than thoroughly washing the areas that I believed had been exposed. While the [REDACTED] had some positive affect on the chemical burns, I already had an annual visit scheduled with my dermatologist for October 24th ([REDACTED]). [REDACTED] also concurred that it appeared the injuries were wide-spread probably caused by a reaction to the cleaning fluid, and would best be treated internally, rather than using an external cream or lotion. He then prescribed a treatment using [REDACTED] tablets, ending on Nov.6, 2019. To date, this has somewhat mitigated, but not eliminatedthe appearance of the burns. 6. I have attached a photograph of the bottle label, and will be contacting the manufacturer next week. The distributor, Amazon, declined to accept the bottle for return to the manufacturer. It is my understanding that their refusal was due to safey concerns, but they did refund the purchase price. I will retain the bottle and fluid, until this matter is resolved. However, I am very cautious when handling that bottle, as liquid seems to drip, unexpectedly causing additional burns.
Regarding my previous report, I have the following new information to amend my report: · I had 4 ounces of this cleaning solution tested by an independent laboratory. · That laboratory just advised that this solution has a pH level ranging from 10 to 11 It appears to me that a solution that is that caustic should not be sold to the public, and clearly should be labelled, as hazardous. At the moment, Hagerty is selling this product to the public without any warning label, at all!
