Dealing with Sensitivity to Windshield Repair Resins
Windshield repair resins come in a variety of colors, viscosities and qualities but most have one thing in common; they contain acrylic acid. Acrylic acid can cause a sensitivity to windshield repair resins. Acrylic acid etches the glass to provide maximum adhesion. Because the number one goal of windshield repair is to restore the structural integrity of the glass, the resin’s ability to bond with the glass is crucial.
So, while acrylic acid is a key ingredient in most top of the line windshield repair resins, like all acids it is important to follow proper safe handling procedures. Then if you get resin on your equipment or a customer’s windshield wipers, upholstery or paint job, it may cause damage. Acid-based resins may also cause skin irritation if handled irresponsibly. In fact, in rare cases individuals may develop a hyper-sensitivity to acrylic acid after repeated exposure to the chemical. Of course, if left untreated hyper-sensitivity can lead to a burning sensation or open sores.
Nitrile Gloves and Sensitivity to Windshield Repair Resins
With this in mind, there are several ways you can protect yourself from the effects of acrylic acid in resin. First, you should always wear nitrile gloves when doing a repair or cleaning up afterwards. Nitrile gloves can block the corrosive effects of acid, unlike latex gloves which cannot. A barrier cream such as Derma-Shield can also be used to increase the…. Continue Reading
