Thanks CODY!!!! This is some bad stuff we use it at work in one of process ....The cleaner turned into Phosgene gas !!!! In case of inhalation: Phosgene can cause severe irritation to the respiratory tract, resulting in burning throat, nausea, vomiting, chest pain, shortness of breath and headache.  Severe respiratory distress may not develop for 4 to 72 hours after exposure, at which point pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs) progressing to pneumonia and cardiac faultier may occur. 

Holy Crap! I use Brake Cleaner all the time... Hummm, not no more!

 The guy had a seizure, labored breathing, chest pain, kidney pain, constipation, vertigo, etc. before he decided he should go to the hospital, 9 days later!  You would think the uncontrollable shaking would have been a heads up. 

What the F!$k

i hate that someone had to get hurt to learn their lesson but hopefully this will at least make people realize to actually READ the fine print. It's put there for a reason. Stop being stupid and read the directions before you use ANY chemical.
