Is dried residue from appliance epoxy paint make pyrex glass toxic?
If the dried paint is on the inside of a pyrex container and you cook something in it, it is possible that some of the paint might leech into the food. The fumes from appliance epoxy paint are highly toxic, and it is doubtful that any paint manufacturer would recommend that dried flakes of the paint be taken internally. There is a good possibilty that a small amount of the paint wouldn't hurt you. However, I would go by what my mother always said: "When in doubt, throw it out!" Or use it for a flower pot.
Does Epoxy appliance paint residue make pyrex glass toxic?
That is a great question!!!! Pyrex used to be a form of borosilicate glass which was and still is prized for its inert properties. Meaning it doesn't contaminate other chemicals or be contaminated easily . I guess the question is can you get it cleaned out of the toxic substance? The other problem is Pyrex brand kitchenware hasent been made of true pyrex for some time and is not as inert as it once was. Is it pre or post pyrex pyrex? Its hard to tell. The safest way to be safe is scap it unless your sure. David Custome Glass Maker/Caster
