<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2043710, member: 19065&quot;]If I can smell it, I wear a respirator. With the hazards of solvents, it&#039;s good to wear protection on eyes, hands and over your mouth and nose. It does not require a SCBA. A 3M brand half mask that you can buy at a home center will do, and they are rated for acetone. Repeated exposure of this material leads to health issues, eye wear to protect being splashed in the eyes, something like Nitrile gloves and a mask are all serious recommendations. I know some old timers and people who didn&#039;t grow up working with this stuff under such precautions blow it off, but it should be pointed out the dangers exist and better practice too now exists in handling such things. </p><p><br /></p><p>Certainly, <u>do not</u> use a turkey baster, that was a visual comparison for such a tool to withdraw the liquid without pouring it to prevent splashing and spills. Acetone does not evaporate so fast that just opening and pouring it it&#039;s gone into thin air nor does spilling it and the fact that it appears to evaporate justify that the spill has magically cleaned itself up. These descriptions are getting a little magical-sounding, now! LOL![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
