Some people are far more sensitive to it than others. Maybe they're
just wooses G or maybe their skin pores are bigger or WHY.
I repaired a plastrerboard wall the other day. There is fibreglass
insulation in the wall. I was itching within a couple of minutes of
starting, just from the bit of dust that came off the glass as I
placed the new sheet etc.
I sit in a kayak that is resin-finished inside, and get itches on
knees, thighs etc in very short order.
Hate the stuff. In any form.
funny noone told you about that before you got started. Before I
fiberglassed my hull, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE I talked to warned
me about how bad it was going to be from all the fibers itching and
such and about all the precausions I should take like duct tape around
gloves and pants legs and throw away all the clothes afterwards. I
didn't go that extreme and I found that the fibers wern't as big a
problem as they said.

After a day of working and grinding the deck of a project boat the one thing
I didn't think of was,,,,,,,,fiberglass getting all over me.
Well ,,,we learn from our mistakes right!
Some people say to take a pair of panty hose and rub it off,,,,,,doesn't
work,,LOL
I did learn that if you cover yourself with hair conditioner when you show
and then wash with soap most will be removed.
After the shower take a roll medical gauze and clean yourself it will remove
the rest of the glass.
Just thought this would be of use to some of the folks that helped me with
my project boat.
