OK well today I tried to make fiberglass casts for my legs. yes, I attempted this myself without the involvement of a physician. Anyway, I forgot to wear gloves, and now I have this resin shit all over me and it WON'T COME OFF! I could be wrong but I beileve it is epoxy resin. It appears to have polymerized into some plasticy shit and it really sucks. Can anyone tell me how to get it off? I've tried soap, alchohol and mineral oil and none of it works for shit. |

I think I have some tolulene in my garage. Would that work? |

Tolulene is dangerous! Try acetone instead. |

Here's an idea. Go to the f***ing doctor and have he/she take a look at both ailments. ...and quit acting like an idiot. |

Try mineral spirits... that usually gets rid of sticky garbage like that. There are several commercial products (Goo Gone and the like) that do a pretty good job with some nasty stuff, and they're harmless for the most part. Good luck. |

as a former boat builder and surfboard shaper, nothing works better than acetone. |

Go get some Gojo PowerGold from your nearest autoparts place....they make small bottles.....Skip the solvents as that'll make the resin get further absorbed into the skin/bloodstream and that can be ugly later on.....Epoxy Resin isn't something you wanna f' around with..... |

4 inch disc grinder works great. |

I got some of this on my hands when recoating bathroom tile. I was able to wash it off with hand soap and GoJo before it dried. Took about 30 minutes of vigorous, skin- removing, scrubbing with an abrasive pad. Here's a link to the Materials Safety Data Sheet: http://www.ximbonder.com/upload/pdfs/TILE%20DOC%20KIT%2054020.pdf |

toluene can be a hallucinogen. |

Take a trip to Saudi Arabia. Then steal something. The authorities will take care of the resin that’s on your hands. As for the resin that’s on the other parts of your body, use a blow torch and melt it off – guaranteed to work!! |

Try PURE CITRUS ORANGE AIR FRESHNER SPRAY. Guarantee it will get that junk off your hands. You will be surprised! It really does work. Good luck.... |

Try hf, you won't need the cast anymore either. |

I'm a composites engineer, though haven't been doing it for very long. We usualy use acetone. If you still have this problem tomorrow morning, post again and I'll ask around at work. |

Acetone and other solvents are a sure bet to cause brain Cancer and other Cancers. If you wanted to make do it yourself casts, why wouldn't you just use the proper stuff? You can even get fiberglass wrap in the plumbing department that sets with water and is likely identical in composition to the newer cast material. |

Use that GOOP stuff, it takes anything off, including tar |
