Two-part putty, protecting hands

[moonmin82]

not good! id just use a small dish of water. i never got into using miliput as i found it could be way too sticky (especially with water).

i work in a lab and i find it funny how such jobs either make you totally complacent about chemicals or totally paranoid!!

I've been using the milliput/greystuff combo (playing with ratios) and found that the milliput really gets sticky and nasty on the fingertips when mixing. My first time I didn't wash my hands after mixing, and it dried inside the fingerprint grooves and between the nails, causing me a bit of discomfort. Now I kind of dampen my hands a bit while I mix, and as the milliput kind of dissolves with water (making a white milky slick on the fingers and putty) I periodically wipe my fingertips off on a damp paper towel. Then I wash my hands and I'm in good shape.

I just dip my tools in a little water - does the trick. I did have a paint brush licking issue for a minute, but I cut that out.

id imagine the worst things you could do would be to lick your tool

If I could do THAT, I would never get anything done! :rotfl:

On a serious note, I mix Magic Sculpt and Green Stuff in bare hands and have experienced no side effects. I wash them immediately after mixing the Magic Sculpt as it leaves a residue on my hands. Nothing I use for sculpting or painting goes in my mouth.

Just above three years old thread, definitely not the worst bit of threadomancy I've seen, but I've seen better. ;D

Haha - That's called "threadromancy" - I also didn't check the date LOL - was just putting in my 2 cents after finding this in the stickies.
