Hairspray works for me.
Spray it in your hands, rub it on the resin, then use soap and water.

Hmm well, I just use warm-hot water and soap, and some good scrubbing. That usually work.

Im serious! Hairspray has Alchohol, and that helps get the resin off.

well let me ask you. How much did you get on ur hands?

 

[JediStumpy]

WOAH!!...why are you not using gloves!! if you are please state that. i understand you can get it on your wrist and forearms by accident, but you need to use gloves. they are just as important as a respirator! to get it off look on the container. they know.

Acetone is the best thing to use aka nail polish remover and it says to use acetone right on the side of the resin can. Besides you should be whereing gloves. Another thing i have to nit pick about is dont you think this would have been alot easier if you just asked a q and a team member, instead of createing a pointless post.

No, use lacquer thinner. I get it on my forearms when i am working with helmets, its fine. as long as a massive amount gets absorbed through the skin, you are fine. you really have to wash it off immediatley or it stays on until it wears out (kind of like tar, only stickier)

OK. Proper safety precautions and you wouldn't have resin on your hands. Gloves and long sleeves and a little attention to detail would have avoided this. Read the can for the proper way to remove it. Safety first.

again, as long as a massive amount isn't absorbed through the skin, soap and water is recommended by the can (i swear,read it)

It all depends on what you mean by SOME resin.

Maybe you were using gloves but they ripped or something? That'll happen to me pretty often. Gets snagged on a sharp piece of protruding fiberglass or something.
