I'd have to know what the ingredients are. If it's a household chemical, they
are supposed to list the active ingredients on the label (at least in the US).
Sometimes, though, it's the inactive ones (which do not have to be listed) that
can cause the problem. Also, if the material is considered a "cosmetic" (like
perfume) nothing need be disclosed. Nze - if you will furnish the name(s) of
the ingredient(s), I can try to find out where the problem might be. Perhaps
even the name of the product can help.
