[P.J.]

Joe, I also wish you the very best.During my working life
I was also a Health & safety Rep. for 20 years, and was very aware of the dangers of chemical absorption through the skin.
Your hands will absorb chemicals that will end up in your liver.
That also applies to household cleaning chemicals like Javex
commonly used at home. You should also avoid exposure to engine and transmision oils .Treating all chemicals as potential Hazards will serve you well. take time to read the hazard warnings on the container and if you need to work with these substances then personal proper protection
is a must.
