I herculined the floor of my XJ on Monday afternoon. I drove it to work after lunch on Tuesday, even with the windows about half down the fumes were bad enough to burn my eyes. I have a short drive to work, about 10-15 minutes, I figured driving with the windows, down, and the "vent" on full blast on i should be fine.
Here we are on Friday, the herculiner seems to be fully cured, but the odor is still really strong, it gives me a headache, irritates my nose/throat/ and I get pains in my l lungs. This is during short drives to work. I think some of the discomfort may be residual from the fumes i was exposed to when applying the herculiner, I was wearing a paper mask (which is like putting a newspaper over your head during a nuclear attack) and I had my garage door half way up. Hindsight 20/20 I should have had the door all the way up and a fan going (it was fregging cold outside though).
My question is.. how long does this freaking smell/fumes last?
