It's on everything, my fingernails are glued to my skin underneath, I hate everything and most of all I hate spray foam.

Thanks for letting me rant. I normally read instructions before using a product and now I'm avoiding the room where it's on everything... How fucked am I?

Update: We've cleaned most of it up from the room... Our hands, not so much lol. I appreciate the advice and support, hopefully y'all got a good laugh on our behalf :)

Ps. It works great as a diy wax for hairy arms!

Why, what happens if you use latex gloves?

[-] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Latex free became common as some ppl have latex allergies. If you're not allergic it's not an issue, but I haven't seen latex gloves in a while.

The foam gets on the gloves and then you take them off. Et Voila, no foam on your hands.

OK, so how does that differ if you use latex-free gloves?

[-] mantra@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 months ago

Nitrile gloves have been shown to offer a bit more protection against isocyanates than latex. If you're just worried about mess and aren't allergic, then probably doesn't matter.

Gloves, rubber, latex, or whatever. Stuff sucks to get on your skin.
