    Default great stuff

    just incase you guys get great stuff where you don't want it. like in my case, your hands. if you don't have acetone, just normal nail polish remover helps get it off!

  2. This member thanks fluffypanda for this post:

    Although rubber gloves are the best means to keep it off your hands..... it will happen at sometime in your viv building experiences.

    Thanks for the removal info.

    This is good info Fluffypanda. Incase no one knows this. Acetone is one of the main ingredients of nail polish remover.

    I would agree on wearing gloves! i wore gloves and as soon as i took them off i got great stuff on my hand! so thats when i figured out that nail polish remover helps. i didn't know that there was acetone in nail polish remover, thanks GrifTheGreat!

    pretty sure the acetone in nail polish remover is what makes it smell so strong

    Actually if you want to pick up Acetone for cheap go to Walmart and in the nail polish section if you look close enough you should be able to find one that is 100% acetone at a lower price then at the hardware store. I actually found this out when changing an oil pan gasket and needed some to get off the old gasket. The grocery store was the closest place to walk to.

    Be sure to use it in well ventilated areas because Acetone will literaly take your breath away. I work with it everyday. It evaporates faster than alcohol and has a very strong drying effect on your skin. Much like peroxide. Be careful with it. Also extremely volotile.
