Since most of us technicians use or have used Teflon powder, you might want 
to go to the following link:
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/2020/Living/Teflon_investigation_031114-1.html

Although the story concerns teflon coating on pots and pans, and carpeting 
among other things, I now wonder if using teflon powder is safe. They 
report, you decide. As a side note, even Dupont, which produces teflon for a 
myriad of uses, and is a multi-BILLION dollar industry alone,  lists the 
dangers of its product RIGHT ON THEIR OWN WEBSITE, but oddly enough, does 
not, has not, and does NOT intend to  list these dangers ON THE PRODUCTS WE 
BUY!
