I stinks SOOO bad that you will not want the switch in the house.
If you must use it....do it outside and try not to get any on you or your
clothes.
I used it to loosen 30 year old bolts on my tower when I took it down...it
works great for outside items."

I concur, with added advice: be leery of using any sort of penetrating oil as a lubricant for any long period of time.  Such oils work very well for freeing stuck parts, but will gum up severely (Blaster is no exception) in a few months time and the parts will be stuck again. A better lubricant once parts are freed might be synthetic motor oil such as Mobil 1 - it takes a long time to gum up.
