EPA bans household use of deadly paint stripper, but not commercial use (CNN) The agency cited "acute fatalities that have resulted from exposure to the chemical" in its reasoning and said methylene chloride poses "unreasonable health risks" to users. At least 64 deaths have been linked to exposure, according to Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families, which has advocated against the chemical. Methylene chloride exposure can cause build-up of fluid in a person's lungs, headaches, dizziness and difficulty walking, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC notes that after serious or "repeated exposures," the chemical can cause brain damage and at high levels of exposure, it can cause "fainting and even death." The ban does not restrict industrial or commercial uses of the chemical, which is also used in plastics processing. But the EPA said it would take public comments on whether a training and certification program could be developed for commercial users. Read Mo Show less Read more
