Unfortunately, nothing could be done with the pervasive odor and dangerous gasses of the gel.

I understand that he ended up having to demolish the house and build anew.

Hmmm. Thanks for the heads-up. GelTech did send two test/practice bottles of the gel for use in a 2.5 gal. PWC. I guess I'd better do just that.
