[QUOTE="CentDime, post: 467065, member: 7297"]Here is a way to test for PVC if anyone is curious, but don't burn down the house trying it. Heat the end of a copper coat hanger over an open flame on a stove. While the coat hanger is hot, touch the questionable plastic with the hanger to obtain a small sample of the plastic. Once again place the coat hanger over the flame. If the flame turns blue, the plastic is safe. If the flame turns green, the plastic contains PVC.[/QUOTE]
