I was reading the MSDS sheet for mineral spirits and noticed that it causes "painter's Syndrome".
What in the world is that?
Anyone up to speed on paint hazards?

Ask anyone.. all signpainters shake like a leaf until they either get a brush or a bottle of wine in their hand. At least that's what I used to hear all the time. Once they started to paint though, the were "steady as a rock. Must be painter's syndrome ...no doubt.

polyneuropathies (eg loss of feeling in hands, feet, etc.); solvent induced neurotoxicity eg painter's syndrome (neurological symptoms such as loss of memory).

But seriously, folks, I'd put headaches and depression in the pot and maybe a dose of PPA (Pi** Poor Attitude) along with the CRS.

I think Mark might have been right with what he said, but I can't seem to remember what he said.
