We will be in touch
Just stuck a load on the flat roof, it looks like the lead flashings were bodged!
Anyway, how to remove flexacryl from fingers? i managed to put my hand on a bit after taking gloves off...
according to the data sheets - brush cleaner {edit} or "a suitable resin dissolving hand cleaner."
But for things you might have around the house.... I've found WD40 good for getting stuff (that hasn't cured) off your hands if nothing else will. Vinegar can be good for anything resin-y as is nail polish remover.
I'm sure I had black hands for a week after using it 😀
Think acetone would do it (nail varnish remover), but that's not kind to your skin either
tried the vinegar, er, i forgot about the paper cut i got earlier...... then i remembered!
Thinking along the lines of felt adhesive (the second most difficult stuff to get off your hands after expanding foam!) have you tried white spirit?
Not the best thing for skin granted, but it fetched muck off my hands that I'd been wearing off!
let it set then wear some gloves in the house so your hands sweat and then you should be able to peel/rub it off.
This may sound daft but margarine or butter make a great hand cleaner for the acrylic adhesives we use in the flooring trade
followed by soap to remove the butter
Washing up liquid plus sugar makes a good hand cleaner.
Isopropyl will do the job,
soak hands in hot water for a while and stiff scrubbing brush
Big wipes or even baby wipes works for unset expanding foam- my first port of call after anything messy now 🙂
