gotten them greasy
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Hi
I Missed the 1st question so Im not sure what this is about.
BUT. If planning to get greasy I recommend NDex gloves in 2 different Mills pending what your doing. Also You can use hand lotion on before you get
started to help clean up take less time. All Chemicals soak into your skin. EVERYTHING you touch will absorb. My Fathers hands are a Total mess after
years of cleaning with everything from gas to laquar reducer to any harsh chemical you could find to clean them up. They are a mess. Now Take my
younger brother. Follows in my fathers foot steps. His hands are a total mess as well. He is 38. I wear gloves and use mild soap and water to remove the
very little I get on them. You only have 2 hands and they need to last you as long as you have. Same with Eye, Ear and Nose. Protect them the best you
can and you will be happier in the long run. A local mechanic asked me once who did all my work on my cars. I stated I did. He looked at my hands and
said I was a Liar flat out. His hands were a total wreck.
As for if you do get grease on your hands I will use the gojo wipes or other brands of wipe style hand cleaners then wash my hands with mild soap and
wanter. You always want to wash the chemical off your hands once they are clean Even if they are a cleaner.
Also for cuts clean good with soap and water then Neosporen and a band aid ( at my house it is My little pony or Care Bears or Some princess ) But keep it
clean and it heals up that much faster.
Sorry to Rant on this. I just see my fathers hands and I know how he took care of them for so many years and in his final 6 -10 years he tried repairing what
he had damaged for so long.
