Birchwood Casey Tru Oil & Wax

[Kaiser]

As per a few different sites, I recently bought some Birchwood Casey Tru oil and Gun Stock Wax to maintain my Axis neck.

Only thing is, on the side of the bottle for the Wax there is a warning which says that the product contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects!!

Has anyone had any advice on handling this product and is it as dangerous as this warning appears to seem?

This seems to be a bit risky, just for cleaning the neck!!

LOL, Az!

Kaiser, does the fact that the danger is only known to cause birth defects in California sound a bit strange? If you don't drink it, or stick your nose in the bottle to inhale it, it's not likely to be any more dangerous to you or your offspring than a couple beers.

Crazy font alert!!


Nah man I would not worry about it. EBMM deal with the stuff everyday.

Make sure you have good ventilation, stay away from heat and flame, follow the instructions for disposal of rags and paper towels, and wash your hands after use. You do not need to use a lot of the stuff and you do not need to use it very frequently.
