i dont get it ;c

I work Security and am Hazmat / Firefighter / First Responder.

Had a Hazmat spill.

SCBA I had to wear because Acetone is a respiratory irritant and once inhaled starts to form Cyanide. Good amount was spilled when the paint booth blew a line dumping couple hundred gallons of Acetone on the floor and into the overflow reservoir below it.

Took about 3 hours to clean up.

Acetone is used to dilute the paint used to spray Caterpillar Parts(Caterpillar Yellow).

EDIT: Also it smells like almonds.
