    The product, in the report: Deck clear sealer

    When sealing my deck with Thompson’s Decl Sealer and resulted with causing asthma from the chemical cycosanates. AT 67 years of age I have never had any form of asthma. Two days after applying the sealer I could breathe. After many tests the conclusion of the physician was the asthma was caused by inhaling while sealing the deck. There was no mention that protective breathing mask should be worn.
