    Ferric is used in water treatment plants.Makes everything orange if they use too much.

    How dangerous is it?

    That largely depends on YOU, Driver. :p

    Do it smart, do it carefully, do it safe...be professional-grade...embrace what you're trained to do/wear there....and it's no more dangerous than hauling milk.

    Dont eat it. Even if you are really hungry.

    Ferric chloride is an orange to brown-black solid. It is slightly soluble in water. It is noncombustible. When wet it is corrosive to aluminum and most metals.
