I was lucky yesterday to get away with as little damage as I did ,
I using a grinder inside the sleeper of a kenworth , I was cutting an aluminium panel out from a storage area under the bunk , we always use silocon spray on the cutting wheel to stop it grabbing on the alloy ( it works extreamly well ) .
Unbeknown to me the can had a microscopic leak, I had it sitting outside the compartment I was grinding in , it had leaked out of the can and drifted down into the compartment , when I started to do the last bit of grinding I touched a bolt head with wheel and kaboooom .
I am extreamly lucky I was wearing a face Shield or my face would have looked the same as my arm .
We still don't know yet if it was the silocon that exploded or the propellant ,
The explosion was large enough to do damage to the sun visors about 9 feet away.
