Unfortunately, the cabinet had several coats of varnish and paint over the original finish. Its potential value could only be realized if these layers could be removed without damaging the original finish. Much of the value of the cabinet depended on the condition of a unique oil finish, the secret of which died with the cabinet's inventor. A professional restorer of antique furniture recommended that the collector use a certain paint-stripping product to remove the paint and varnish from the cabinet. The collector obtained and read a sales brochure published by the manufacturer of the paint-stripping product. The brochure stated: "This product will renew all antique furniture. Will not damage original oil finishes." The collector purchased this paint-stripping product and used it on his cabinet, being very careful to follow the accompanying instructions exactly. Despite the collector's care, the cabinet's original finish was irreparably damaged. When finally refinished, the cabinet was worth less than 20% of what it would have been worth if its original finish had been preserved. If the collector sues the manufacturer of the paint-stripping product to recover the loss he has suffered as a result of the destruction of the cabinet's original finish, will the collector likely prevail? A. No, if the product was not dangerous to persons. O B. No, unless the product was defective when sold by the manufacturer. C. Yes, if the loss would not have occurred had the statement in the brochure been true. O D. Yes, unless no other known removal technique would have preserved the cabinet's original finish.
