If "Silly Spray" is the same thing as "silly string" it might be difficult to find out. "Precious little is known about the origins or ingredients of Silly String. First introduced to the gag-gift market in 1969 by Julius Samann, Ltd., the only thing that is known about Silly String is that it is non-toxic, non-flammable, and completely free of chlorofluorocarbons. Beyond that, no one, save the manufacturer, knows the exact ingredients of this top-secret tool of pranksters. No ingredients are listed on the can and the manufacturer refuses to say what they are, claiming that is information is proprietary." http://www.yesterdayland.com/popopedia/shows/toys/ty1069.php |

Unofficially, it is Polyisobutylmethacrylate, plasticized with DBP. http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=375F900E.CA278E3%40pacifier.com&rnum=16&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dsilly%2Bstring%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26start%3D10%26sa%3DN |
