I had this happen on a hot day here with one of those spring loaded fuel can nozzles. Must have been that much pressure up in there, I had the can upright and it sprayed mostly on the back of the tower. Haven't been able to replicate it since. Not the nicest feeling in the world getting sprayed with 2 stroke is it.

yep a groundie pulled a fuel can out of the truck, it got stuck so instead of stopping and seeing what was stopping it he ripped it out, problem was the cap had caught on a ledge i was walking past at the time and got a full face of 2 stroke as it released and he fell backwards man it was like acid and it ruined my hair

Seen this,, it fizz's out when you pull the cap like a soda can. Ha, stupid me. last week I got a face full of round up & MCPA when I squashed the trigger while in a rush to pak up the spray pak into the back of the ute. |

Everybody else is fessing up so I suppose I will add my little experience in pressure blow back. Nothing to do with fuel though, I was injecting Silvasheild into a tree when on withdrawing the injector nozzle it blew back into my face. I made a quick phone call to let the troops know what just happen then I jumped into the ute and went straight back to have a shower and change into a fresh set of work gear, I could taste silvashield for days... ewww...once is enought. my warts are starting to fall off...wreckon it's related?..lol
