Are you bored enough... Patch Test Sweepstake

After an earlier skin resction, probably to epoxy resin, I was sent for a patch test. I assumed they would check for expoxy, acrylic and maybe a few other things. It turns out I underestimated how many tests this was going to be. It was quite a big underestimation. It turns out I have 122 different patch tests. I have no idea what they all are, and I have no idea which ones are in which patches. 

Fortunately, they're grouped into 12 sets of 10 and a set of 2 so I thought it might be fun to run a sweepstake to see which set has the biggest reaction.

Pick a number between 1 and 13, and you get all those patch tests. Results will come out on Friday.

I just hope that, for everyone's wellbeing, he's wearing underpants.

Are you suggesting my pubes look like a plant, although i guess i could do a little man-scaping.

Possible but I mixed 70g of epoxy resin with glass baubles to make the white body filler you see on the carbon fibre airdam.

I was wearing full overalls, protective gloves and was in a well vented garage. The next day, my skin did not look good.
