hairspray+liter=flame any down sides?

Question

can anything bad happen you spray hairspare on a liter flame. i did it and it made a big flame it was awsome.

Answer 1

First, it's "lighter" not "liter."

Second, spray paint works better.

Oh...and you could catch the can on fire making it blow up in your hand.

Answer 2

The propellant gas in hairspray is butane, the same as in cigarette lighters. First off, never spray hairspray on a lighter. Second off, never inhale the vapor from hairspray. Third off, you can thank our activist environmental friends for banning fluorocarbon propellants. For our environmental blessings, let us weep.
