Reported risk: Over time, the contents of the cans may react with the package, causing rust to form along the can seam, which could spread to other areas of the can. If enough time elapses, pinhole leaks may manifest in the wall of the can, particularly along the seam of the packaging, exposing the contents of the can to the environment. If leaking aerosol cans are improperly stored near sources of ignition, a potential fire hazard exists. Property damage from leaking liquid sealer could occur. As of December 24, 2019, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
