: One more thing about acetone... It is not particularly toxic on its
: own, but it carries whatever contaminants it contains deep into
: your skin. For example, it will carry uncured epoxy, which is
: nasty, into your skin. So, never use it to clean epoxy or other
: nasties off your hands, and more generally, keep it off your
: skin if it has anything nasty dissolved in it.

: Re. gloves, I have yet to find gloves that will stand serious work
: time with liquid acetone. Maybe I have just missed the good
: stuff...

Double glove, inner nitril glove and outer heavy natural rubber, works for about an hour, maybe a little more.
