well im not sure what the chemical was but it was floor stripper. When i was doing time they had me working in a small engine shop fixing lawnmowers and stuff like that. One day i was rebuilding a motor and ran out of degresser, so i went to the toolroom and asked the inmate there for some degreaser. well they where out so without telling me he gave me some floor stripper, i added water to it thinking it was degreaser, then stuck parts in the bucket (steal and aluminum) and started to clean. first thing i noticed was that it got warm....then the burning started and thats when i knew something was horribley wrong. the stuff burned right through my skin and keept eating its way down. Still to this day i got visable scars on my hand from where that stuff ate me up.
