What a mess. Boy I was surprised.

Went out back to the new garage (30 x 40), 16 foot door,(Had to brag a little about the boat cave) I built this last season to put away some tackle I recently purcased. I opened the door and there was a haze in the air, almost like dust. I then removed the boat cover only to find that my fire extinguisher in the boat had discharged its contents under the cover. You talk about a mess. Not sure really what happened. The pin was in the extinguisher with no visible damage. I knew I would have to replace it so I took it outside and it worked properly. How could this have happened? Now I am left with a big mess to clean up. My son came up with the idea to use my new Leaf blower to blow all the stuff out then use a air compressor to get even more of it out. It looks like someone dropped a bag of flour in the boat. This stuff is everywhere. Starting my season off just like it ended.

Dude, sorry to hear that, i had glass work done on my Ranger and the shop didnt do a good job of taping off and i had white gel dust everywhere on carpet and you name it, it was hard to get out and there still was a residue,, keep it dry and hope you can suck it out..I guess it got so cold it burst or leaked out, never had heard of this though...Good luck with the clean up...

I had my extinguisher go off on me last year. I was hooking up the boat to carry to shop, and then I was going to work once I dropped off the boat. I noticied that the extinguisher was laying of the back of the boat so I went to put up and some how made go off all over me and the boat. It made one helluva mess, and I looked like a ghost. A pressure washer will get it off and wash it out the drain.
