Now, I never ate the stuff I worked with and always used a respirator. So it that stuff didn't go through my skin, how did it get there? (There was a lot of contact between the liquid resins, catalysts, acetone and my skin over a 6 year stretch.)
Edit: Sorry, an answer to an old thread I already answered. Oh well.

Far from true. In fact, there are medication that are specifically create and designed to treat the skin as well as use it as a transport medium for medicines to get into the bloodstream. Frankly, I'm surprised that anyone would make such a claim in this day and age. Apparently, he didn't think that one through.
