[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 181075, member: 337"] I'm sure most of today's plastics and rubbers are quite resistant - it just seems unnecessarily risky to have an oxidizer filling your cab interior just looking for stuff to eff up. PITA stuff - that once failed things just start to fall apart which pisses a guy off - like little tiny fasteners, seals, bumpers, liners, etc. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone_cracking[/URL] [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I learned this long ago doing spectroscopic research - anything rubber-like in the lab where we often calibrated instruments with mercury lamps (which generate ozone) turned to crap in less than a year. Less than a minute after turning one of these lamps on and you smelled ozone. What a gross smell. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury-vapor_lamp[/URL] [/QUOTE]
