Outdoor products...

Ok... trying to get a poster together in short order. What brands are out there that make evil outdoor products with cancer causing mineral oil?

Hawaiian Tropic come to mind, but I am drawing a blank as to the others. Its time for a LARGER poster. I just had a room that was JUST remodeled and equip with a new bed TRASHED from spray on oil that was clearly an outdoor product. Banned two people this month since they did not want to foot the $250 cost of new acrylic (as per the initiation form they signed where they specifically initial the waring about outdoor products).

Yes, education is the best preventative but some people just never get smarter than they are.

Duh... I knew I was forgetting the other obvious one, Banana Crap.

Trying to get product images and make the poster all fancy on legal sized paper.

Re: Outdoor products...

In defense of Banana boat, at least they market it for outdoor use.

But tell me how anyone can call a product containing SPF a "tanning product".

Because you can still tan even if your product contains SPF

Re: Outdoor products...

had a chick use baby oil yesterday, going to ream her a new one when she comes in again. She buys lotion, so I think she must have already had it on from earlier or the day before, but it still took me an hour to get it all off. UGH!!

Re: Outdoor products...

Ya, this last client had a bottle of indoor. Bronze Candy. Nothing fancy but no clue why she would have used what she did!

Here is a thumbnail of the poster I made. Probably change it later, but you get the idea. Ya, I know its small so hard to read.

I keep LOTS of reading material on hand about the hazards of Mineral Oil.
