Here is an interesting situation. I have been using blue original scott towels to apply CA for over a year. I took 90% of a roll and one day cut them all up into strips - I then put these strips into 2 Tupperware type plastic containers and I have used them for the last 16 months. I tested the towels when I first bought them by putting a bunch of CA on and just waiting for 30 seconds to see if it started smoking - the towels passed no issues - and no issues for 16 months
The other day they all started smoking within 5-10 seconds of getting the CA - and very hot to the touch
my first instinct was the CA, it was 5-6 months old - but I got the same results with 2 new bottles of CA
the package of blue towels I had was a double pack so I tried the new roll --- No smoking or heat
is it possible the blue towels sat in the plastic container for so long they absorbed something from the plastic that is reacting with the CA ?
Or do you think the CA goddess was sleeping and realized she let me finish 3 pens in a row without CA problems - so in her groggy state she just throw this problem out there ?
