Monday 13 October from 6pm to 6:30pm

Most Aussie homes have a stash of cleaning products, glues, paints, and DIY materials tucked away in cupboards, under sinks, or out in the shed. But not many people know how to use or store them properly.

Did you know that mixing vinegar and bleach can create toxic gas? Or that storing epoxy or solvents in a poorly ventilated space can become a serious fire hazard?

These are the kinds of things that can go horribly wrong — simply because no one ever taught us the basics.

That’s exactly why we created this free online event: to teach everyday Aussies how to handle and store common household chemicals safely and confidently.

This isn’t a boring safety lecture — it’s a fast, practical, real-world session designed to give you useful tips that can make a difference today.

You’ll learn:

  • How to read product labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS)

  • What products should never be mixed (e.g. bleach + vinegar = danger)

  • Where and how to safely store epoxy, cleaning agents, and flammables

  • Essential protective gear and how to use it correctly

  • What to do if there’s a spill, exposure, or breathing incident

  • How to legally dispose of leftover products

  • Bonus: Get a free downloadable Chemical Safety Checklist for your home

Who’s this session for?

You don’t need to be a tradie to benefit from this. This session is perfect for:

  • Parents who want to keep their homes safe for kids and pets

  • DIYers working with epoxy, resin, paint, or cleaners

  • Students or first-time renters setting up their own place

  • Homeowners with a garage, shed, or workshop

  • Anyone who’s ever read the back of a cleaning bottle and felt confused

Basically, if you’ve got a bottle of bleach and a paint tin at home — this one’s for you.

Abouh the Host:

The session is hosted by Leo Sajjadi, founder of Coatex Australia P/L and the force behind Epoxy Flooring Tech.

With years of hands-on experience working with industrial-grade epoxy, coatings, solvents, and cleaning chemicals, Leo has seen first hand what can go wrong — from minor burns and allergic reactions to full-blown chemical fires caused by bad storage.

He’s trained commercial teams and tradies across Sydney, and now he’s making that knowledge available to the general public — for free.

No fluff. No upselling. Just the straight facts about chemical safety at home.
