Fire damaged, then left in the rain to rust for a few months? FFS.


Anyway, aren't you supposed to avoid burnt under-bonnet bits like the plague? Isn't there chemicals released that sink through your skin and melt your bones?? Can't remember the name of the stuff now but it's bad bad bad innit???

Burnt plastics and wiring are very carcinogenic (cause cancer). When rewiring burnt out wiring looms, I have to wear gloves. Once it's been cleaned away the risk has gone though, so any bunt bits should be bbinned immediately and skin protection should be worn.

AND hydrofluoric acid which is one of the nastiest acids. Just wearing gloves is not sufficient. You should have calcium gluconate gel readily available to treat burns and ingestion or inhalation can be fatal.
