Good point, it's bad, but not near as bad as chlorinated products. That will kill you and fast.

We do galvanized all the time. 5'x10' sheets of tacked expanded and sheet (11+ in the last month). It will make you a little light headed if you really breath a lot of it. It also does clear out of your system. Best thing is grind it off or vent it well over shielding gas. We vent it as we want to keep as much on the trailers as we can.

Galvanized can be do if done right, done really wrong will make you sick. OP, not recommended at all.

I knew about galvanized (I've got one of those canister masks for working with it) and though I don't use it, never thought there was a danger with brake cleaner (I mostly use alcohol and acetone).
