Just those cheap new cans. This would have never happened in the 90s when we still had decent quality cans.

I’ve never seen any shit like this before. It shouldn’t have been possible, but it clearly did.

I think it did, but only a tiny bit. Most of it went into the cupholder which was lucky I suppose

Holy crap.

I take it you weren’t in the car when the powder keg detonated?

Reminds me of the story about the “biscuit bullet”.

Two thoughts:

1) Is it on the ceiling?

2) You’re the second person I have seen this happen to this summer, both times the owner said something like “I never thought this would happen”

This also happens with a can of Monster sitting in a car overnight at -20°C. Lucky for me the sticky red snow was relatively easy to clean because it was still mostly frozen when I found it. There are still a couple of faint red stains on that lightly coloured headliner though.

This is why I warn people to not leave aerosols (or anything under pressure) in their car.

I think my head did this last week. Drove my car after it had been sitting in direct sunlight for a couple hours (outside temp read 111), haven’t been right since.

my older brother had a few cans burst on him one day a few years ago.

Thanks for the warning. I’m a Floridian, this could easily happen to me. During the six months of summer time we get down here, I sometimes carry a cup of water out of the office to pour over the top, in order to cool down the pizza oven my car interior turns into before I get in.

Thats way too much work to clean the mess. Quick, delete the post and follow my fool-proof plan...

Step 1: Get Liberty Mutual car replacement insurance

Step 2: Drive car into ditch

Step 3: Make insurance claim saying the can exploded wile you were driving. Tell them you’re excited that they will replace your BMW and that you really loved its torque ratios.

Step 4: new car = profit?

I can find no fault in your logic. BRB.
