It's on everything, my fingernails are glued to my skin underneath, I hate everything and most of all I hate spray foam.

Thanks for letting me rant. I normally read instructions before using a product and now I'm avoiding the room where it's on everything... How fucked am I?

Update: We've cleaned most of it up from the room... Our hands, not so much lol. I appreciate the advice and support, hopefully y'all got a good laugh on our behalf :)

Ps. It works great as a diy wax for hairy arms!

It'll eventually wear off your skin. In a few days. On other, relatively non porous surfaces, it can be removed easily once cured. Porous surfaces like wood, cloth, or carpet? Sorry, it's here to stay.

Ha ha ha.. I knew before I clicked it what you were going to say.

That shit is like.. nasty af. Also, another good reason to bite the bullet and do what the quality tradespeople do:

Buy a box of nitrile gloves and store them whereever you keep your solvents/ sprays/ paints/ anything..

Nitrile goes on the moment anything sticky comes out. Spending the next hours or days picking bits of bullshit off your dick ticklers isn't great.

I honestly wear gloves when working all the time, work gloves or nitrile, because I don't want rough hands with tiny cuts you only find when you use sanitizer.

I understood why he wore a glove with Vaseline in them, you wife probably does too.

It's a very fine line between "I don't think that's enough" and "OMG, will it ever stop?"
