Always put the paint in the trunk!

That's pretty funny. The blue car doesn't look like it has a back seat.

I had a client that wanted me to drop off at his office a new gallon of solvent base contact cement. I did that about 9:30 in the morning. About 5:30 in the afternoon, he asked me to come to the office because he had a problem.

He put the gallon on the floor of the back seat. Throughout the day it got up to over 90 degrees...his windows were closed. The can decided to expand and spew cement all over the floor. When he opened the door, the smell was incredible. He had to call for a rental.

My short sister was driving and after they parked at home she ran the drivers seat back in the curtsey position for tall BIL. can punctured and sprayed the middle seat of the company car.

Agreed, it was funny!

Back in the early '70s, I helped out the body shop department of the local Ford dealership when they got behind. They ordered a quart of paint from the then Memphis Ford district warehouse. It was shipped USPS. The local USPS told them to never have paint shipped via USPS again. It opened in the USPS bag and painted every piece of mail in the bag a metallic green!
