Ha ha ha.. I knew before I clicked it what you were going to say.
That shit is like.. nasty af. Also, another good reason to bite the bullet and do what the quality tradespeople do:
Buy a box of nitrile gloves and store them whereever you keep your solvents/ sprays/ paints/ anything..
Nitrile goes on the moment anything sticky comes out. Spending the next hours or days picking bits of bullshit off your dick ticklers isn't great.
I honestly wear gloves when working all the time, work gloves or nitrile, because I don't want rough hands with tiny cuts you only find when you use sanitizer.
I understood why he wore a glove with Vaseline in them, you wife probably does too.
wore a glove with Vaseline in them
pre-lubricated for her pleasure..
Petroleum-based lubes are not wise compared to water-based for internal use and say you aren't a fan of classic American literature without saying you aren't a fan of classic American literature.
Who, Curly? Moisturizer, not lube.
They're also great for working on the car, handling dead animals, dealing with harsh chemicals, and a bunch of other uses.
It's a very fine line between "I don't think that's enough" and "OMG, will it ever stop?"
It'll eventually wear off your skin. In a few days. On other, relatively non porous surfaces, it can be removed easily once cured. Porous surfaces like wood, cloth, or carpet? Sorry, it's here to stay.
It's funny because we were trying to get it to stick to wood, which it didn't seem to stick to that well
I think a damp sponge first can help it stick
This is excellent advice actually! My first instinct after getting it on my skin was to wash it off with soap and water, and learned afterwards that water causes it to cure faster. So it would make sense to dampen the wood to get it to stick better
Life is the collection of things you learnt. If you still have all your fingers and toes, this was a cheap lesson to learn :)
that will look strange.
better wax the whole arm now.
Why use wax? Apparently the spray foam is doing just fine...
This is your life now.
Keep putting oils on your skin, it will help, I've been there, lo siento
Probably too late for now but if you ever have a big spray foam job in the future :)
Best thing I found for spray foam is the reusable sprayer that you screw larger cans on.
It's soooo much better. I was sealing up everything I could in the basement before drywall went up.
We had a radon mitigation system installed after discovering ours was quite high. The guy that came had one of these guns to seal up all the cracks in the floor
Great stuff Pro 14. It's $60 bux but is a game changer. You can store the connected can on it for 30 days it says. They have a spray can of cleaner to clean it after your done.
Can confirm, the metal spray guns are way better than the disposable cans. Their 'reusable' disposable cans had poor flow and kept clogging on me.
Oof, I feel your frustration.
As long as you didn't snort it, you'll be fine in the long run... 😂
Latex free gloves are a need.
Why, what happens if you use latex gloves?
Latex free became common as some ppl have latex allergies. If you're not allergic it's not an issue, but I haven't seen latex gloves in a while.
The foam gets on the gloves and then you take them off. Et Voila, no foam on your hands.
OK, so how does that differ if you use latex-free gloves?
Nitrile gloves have been shown to offer a bit more protection against isocyanates than latex. If you're just worried about mess and aren't allergic, then probably doesn't matter.
Gloves, rubber, latex, or whatever. Stuff sucks to get on your skin.
I put on an old pair of coveralls, gloves, hat, hood, respirator, old shoes, goggles. I covered the doorway to the room with plastic and setup a fan for ventilation and pre-heated the bottles. Even with all that I was miserable. I was hot and sweaty, had trouble breathing, and couldn't see out of the goggles. My arms were tired and the foam mixture wasn't always mixing properly and ended up wasting a lot of the mixture. It was still pretty expensive and time consuming... not sure I would do it again.
