Fiberglass blister itch
 
This week my Capt Rob has been busy grinding blister off the hull of
our new 35s5.

Rob was crying himself to sleep because the fiberglass dust made him
itch like mad.
I broke out my big tube of Vagisil and coated him with a thick sheen.

Instantly Rob was soothed and stopped smelling like fresh baked yeast
bread.

Rob's so big we can not afford to keep using my Vagisil, do you know
of anything else that will stop his itch? And I miss that bread smell.

Thank you

Fuming nitric acid has been shown to be effective.

And it's readily available in large quantity... although
prussic is more effective IMHO
