Always use gloves! Even if it doesn't seem like you are having any negative effects from touching resin, every one has a risk of developing a severe allergic reaction from repeated contact with resin!Always use a fitting respirator with organic vapor cartridges! Inhaling resin fumes can cause irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs, resulting in inflammation and asthma after prolonged exposures. Even if the resin brand says they have no VOCs, using the appropriate respirator is always recommended especially if you are working in a small space. Using a respirator is especially important when you are sanding resin or using a lighter to pop air bubbles!Work in an open, well-ventilated space if possible!Do not allow children or pets near uncured resin!
