We have been using Scott's carbon fiber cylinders for about 2 years and have never really had a problem with them. Recently after some training fires we noticed some of the cylinders had a brownish color to them. We usually wipe down all of them after any fire to keep them clean, so we did this as usual. Many of the cylinders would not come clean and seemed as though they were stained. We didn't really think anything about it until our local dealer for Scott came to the firehouse last week. He is not a Scott representative, but a salesman that sells Scott products. He said that none of the grey colored carbon cylinders should ever change colors and that he had a concern that the cylinders may have been exposed to high temperatures and could be damaged. I am just wondering if anyone else has heard this or if anyone else has had problems with carbon cylinders being damaged.
