Always carry you etch marker in some kind of plastic bag, preferably a zip lock bag... you never know when that shit will break or drip out the marker...

small plastic bags like the ones you get from gift shops or something are the best. all u do is just put it in the bag and when you take it out you pull the plastic about half way or just enough for the nib.

Maybe he was writin then got alot on his hands and had no way to get it off for a while.
didnt u guys see fightclub
water on a chemical burn makes it worst
you gotta neutralize that shit
yeah good thing this isnt fight club then... the best way keep your hand from turning into raw meat is to stick it under running water right after you get the etch on your skin
i have legitimate training in the use of this shit

^^^^^^you couldnt be more wrong, water will spread the burn and if anything will only delude the etch, if you were to neutralize the acids that areburning you on the other hand then you can wash and scrub your hands until there is no possible way that any of that etch is left

this thread is fucking retarded. you get the shit on your hands, you feel a slight tingling sensation, you wipe your hands. those pictures that were posted were prolonged exposure to the chemical. 99% of you idiots obviously never even used it.

Hand cleaner with lanolin in it, prior to handling it. Peel coat used by painters, to keep paint off of their hands. A spray bottle close by of baking soda dissolved in water or sodium bicarbonate. Gloves & goggles are always good! You can also use lime to nuetralize the skin. Washing is recommmended, but for 15 minutes straight. I worked for a guy who used a 6% solution to wash trucks and busses and it was bad Shit! He kept buckets everywhere with sodium bicarbonate dissolved in them and would slip hands, arms, feet, face or whatever in these buckets when the stuff splashed on him!
