Re: breathing LOX

Post by zinc2u »

I'm not a medical doctor but I don't think the brake fluid or engine oil are a big concern with regard to breathing.  Both fluids are not volatile and will not interfere with your breathing.  I would be more concerned with getting the brake fluid in your eyes.
I believe a bigger concern for you would be the gasoline fumes and brake dust.
I was going to tell you to check with your doctor but the doc probably doesn't know the difference between brake fluid and motor oil.  Being concerned about liability lawsuits,  the doc would probably tell you to confine yourself to watching cars being altered and modified on cable TV.
good luck,
Dale

I was thinking that o2 and petro products were supposed to be flammable or explosive if gotten together or sumpin bad for anyone.
   You probably right about the Dr.  not knowing, but I do like mine because he lets me treat myself.  He even writes me scripts for Naltrexone and he wont do it for anyone else. It's for off label.   That LDN is good for lotsa things.

I've heard of that kind of lox but never tasted it or even know what it is made of.  My LOX is Liquid Oxygen that I breathe 24/7.  Reckon I'd just die without it.
