It's fatal...

Jes' kiddin'

In actuality, and not knowing a thing about you, you're NOT exhibiting the classical symptomology of acute exposure response. However...you're immune system could be responding to the assault, particularly to the constituents in the hardner. Got a question, did you sniff it? Notice the ammonia smell? Most human respond to some similiar manner to "high" levels of ammonia containing chemicals...and high means tens of parts per million range. Not to nag...but as if I have to say it...a air purifying respirator with organic filters is the way to go, preferrably a full-face mask to protect the eyes, too. There's something that occurs with chronic exposure to a chemical that induces sudden, obvious responses. For me, it's methylene chloride. I'm redden up and swell when exposed to low parts per million in air! Ya seriuosly have to take care of yourself. Thus endth my sermon. cheers
