Cabot Stains has recalled about 17,500 units of Wood Cleaner and 10,900 units of Wood Brightener sold in 1.3-gallon white handle tanks with black pump assemblies. The spray pump on these containers can lose its seal, causing the chemicals inside to leak out during use. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and return them to the store where they were purchased for a full refund. These products were sold nationwide at hardware stores like Lowe's and Ace Hardware between March 2011 and June 2012.
The internal chemicals can leak from the pump seal, posing a risk of chemical burns or serious internal and external injuries if the liquid touches skin, enters the eyes, or is accidentally swallowed. While three leaks have been reported, no injuries have occurred yet.
Consumers should immediately discontinue use of the products and return them to the store of purchase for a full refund. Consumers should also not attempt to reuse empty containers.
