Thank you, thank you, thank you! I did all the things you said not to but the tape still helped. I was going batty. Felt like I had hugged a glass cactus.

Thank for posting this. I got fibreglass by folding back a used fire blanket which was 100% fiberglass on a Saturday night. I couldn't see the tiny pieces even using the magnifying lens from my cellphone. I googled the problem and your video was the first result and had the exact perfect solution.

good Tip...Hi i do attic insulation...best way is to take a cold shower...hot water opens up your pores and gets the fibres in your skin thats what you don't want!

Thank you for the tip, it removed the fibers from my forearms like a charm.

thanks for the vid Phil! i got fiberglass by folding a back used fire blankey which was 100 percent fibingglas

Life saver. Thanks for the help!

I'll give this a go the next time I have the issue, but for now I'm gonna use the power and wear gloves, I help my friend install CCTV cameras so I'm in the loft a lot and pulling cables catches fiber glass splinters into my hand, then riding a motorbike...yeah you can imagine lol

I would like to take the time to praise two things: Bless this video and bless the almighty duct tape. My forearms were absolutely red with misery thanks to roofing insulation. This was a relief, thank you.

thank you! Tape just saved my day ;) Really good tip

Yo, you are the absolute best I have no idea how I have never thought of this. God Bless you, sir.

My issue is touching oars (like for rowing) because they are made of fiberglass. There is no real way to prevent it so I this video was very helpful. Thank you

Hey what about wearing good respirator (mask)?

I've never seen someone tear duct tape that easily I my life

What about a dust mask, breathing in tiny glass fibers cant be good for your lungs.

Thaaaank you!

Thank you!

Never occurred to me, thanks.

Thanks for sharing , i think a vaccuum pump can help also , i have not tried yet , but maybe it can help

Clutch video. I did the mistake of taking a shower thinking it would come off. Nope. I did the duct tape trick and I’m am free of the annoyances on my arms! 🎉

I'M FROM CLARENCE!!!!😂😂

And not a word about a respirator!

Just wear long sleeves or a disposable full body hymark suit for example. I work in insulation removal and install and the best thing is just rinse with water without rubbing until you get the chance to shower then have a shower to get it off.

I hope you're not the one who did the drywall and tape work shown in the background.

When I was a little kid, I played in the attic of an abandoned house which was full of the pink fiberglass insulation. I played all up in that insulation. Afterwords, I was totally itchy and tried swimming around in my kiddie pool later that day to get the itching to go away, and it hardly helped. I guess it went away after a time, I can't remember. But I'm 34 now, and look back at that and wonder if I got tiny pieces of glass still embedded in my body today. lol. that sucks. I lived though... unless the cancer will get me later.

i touched fiber glass. got no itch but i see thos glowing on my finger in light. when they were puting pink insulation on. some of it went on our bathroom door nob and i did not know it was on it tell i noticed the door nob was overed in it. its been a day now no itch. but i can see thos tiny peices but only in bright light. they will fall off on its own. happen to me friend. they fell all over him when we was worken on a ship. it went in hes face and he had gloves on and wiped hes eyes by mistake and it was in hes eyes. but he was ok he told me u will just get pink eye becasue i had a big panic attack im really scared of pink insulation big times. my friend made me feel better when he told me about it. so it calm me down. hes use to it. hes been worken like that for 2 years now hes use to it.

Thank you so much the duct tape worked!!!!!!

guys he’s fine it’s just cotton candy.

the funny thing was tho when i was a kid i was not scared of pink insulation. i use to play downstairs back then and i touched it. made me itchy but it went away on its own. im sure a lot of were when were kids we use to play around it.

Thank you for the video. I just wanted to point out that that is duct tape, not masking tape as you said in the beginning of the video. Masking tape is made of paper and definitely not sticky enough for this. I noticed that you did say duct tape at the end though. Thanks again!

What do you do when you. Have meth dust caused by sanding a hardwood floor, it uses t o be a meth house about 10 years ago .I cleaned the floors with colorex water. When dry uses the sander iam full of the dust. So is the 4 room house.⁰How do you treat your

Anybody know about the baby powder concept has that worked for anyone?

How to clean floors

thank you chris that realy hurt

What about when it's 103 degrees outside and the baby powder doesn't work?

I need help! I have very curly hair, and I got fiberglass on my scalp. What can I do to get it out?

That doesn't work, you need a nasa space suit to with that stuff.🤦

Is this guy from DEVO?

What if fiber glass is already inside you

My little sister tried to pick up our fiberglass ladder... You can probably tell that why I am here that it didnt go so well... She got it all over herself! We have tried cold showers, duct tape, and it hasn't really worked for us. Is there anything else that may work?

had me at baby powder

what if the fiber glass is on both hands and fingers?

I’m a welder and fu*k I hate when we have to put fire blankets!!! And that’s everyday lol cause they got fibers everywhere!!!!!

an old school way is to 1 use an old pair of Nylons that woman use to wear. 2 then grab a bar of soap in your hand.3 pull panty hose over hand. 4 shower while in one motion top to bottom wash your exposed skin on limbs. then rotate panty hose and use other side and proceed by pulling panty hose UpTo finger tips and tucking it in the back of hand and never do circular motions that just digs it in . hope it helps . G.

I was so excited for this to work and it definitely didn’t… how miserable 😖

This method did not worked for me. The fibre glass themselves came out after a week.

U the man Chris, I'll try duct tape!!!!

Sandpaper

Lotion helps too, just rub it.

fibre glass is a vile substance, working with it everyday makes me want to cut my hands off its so uncomfortable lol

Yea ok let me put asbestos baby powder on my skin

Thanks scotch tape didn't work
