Kenner Recalls Fastblast Spray Art Craft Sets Due to Toxic Ink
Kenner is recalling Fastblast Spray Art Design craft sets and color refills because the inks contain toxic levels of ethylene glycol.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a toxic substance (ethylene glycol) in a product intended for children, which fits the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.'
Plain-English summary
Kenner Products, a division of Tonka Corporation, is voluntarily recalling approximately 45,000 "Fastblast Spray Art Design" craft sets (model number 60090) and approximately 29,000 "Fastblast Color Refill Assortments" (model number 60091). These products were sold nationally from November 1993 through March 1994 by Toys-R-Us and other stores. The craft sets are intended for children six years and older to create designs using stencils and an airbrush that sprays washable colored inks.
The recall is being conducted because the colored inks contain up to 12% ethylene glycol. At this level, ethylene glycol is toxic to children and is banned in children's products. Although Kenner reported having obtained the required toxicological review under the Labeling of Hazardous Art Materials Act, they subsequently determined that the ink levels posed a hazard.
Neither the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) nor Kenner Products is aware of any injuries or illnesses involving these products. Consumers who own these craft sets or refills should immediately stop using them, take them away from children, and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
