The fire hazards are not the same for all aerosol products (e.g. compare shaving cream to spray paint).

Aerosol products are grouped into Levels 1, 2 and 3 based on the percentage concentration of soluble and insoluble flammable liquids.

Level 1 aerosol products are predominately water-based and their fire

hazard is about the same as ordinary combustible goods in cartons. Typical

Level 1 aerosol products

include shaving cream, window cleaners, starch, rug shampoos, alkaline oven cleaners, etc.

Level 2 aerosols are predominately water miscible flammable/combustible liquids; they produce intense fires that also cause ruptured cans to be propelled in several directions. Though the fire can spread, the relative small amount of water miscible liquid is quickly extinguished by sprinklers. Typical Level 2

aerosol products include hair sprays, deodorants, antiseptics, some furniture polishes, windshield deicers, etc.

Level 3 aerosol products present the greatest challenge. They contain predominately insoluble

flammable/combustible liquids that also produce intense fires, with the added hazard that a ruptured

can releases flammable/combustible liquids that are not easily extinguished by sprinklers. Typical

Level 3 aerosol products include paint, lacquer, lubricants, some furniture polishes, engine cleaners,

some insecticides, oil-based antiperspirants, etc.
