can i use spray paint near my gas boiler if i turn it off first?
It's a bad idea to use caned spray paint anywhere indoors. The smell is bad and a fine dust will drift around your home.....outside always
DO NOT USE ANY THING NEAR YOUR GAS BOILER THAT HAS ANY KIND OF FUMES. My husband was inflating a wheelbarrow tire in the basement, and was close to our gas furnace, which has a pilot light. The furnace was not running, but when the fumes from the can of tire inflator reached the pilot light, it ignited and he was encircled in flames for a second till the fumes were burned off. Luckily, he was not burned, but the wheelbarrow tire continued to burn and he had to carry it outside while it was burning. If you use a can of spray paint and that happens it may explode in your hand, or you could be burned by the fumes igniting like what happened to my husband. Another thing that could happen is a build up of fumes if the boiler is in an enclosed area and that could ignite and cause an explosion. (Sorry for the capital letters, but I wanted you to notice what I said). (Please be careful, fumes are very dangerous).
not unless you want problems go outside or in the garrage never never in the boiler room
