Long sleeves and make sure to coat yourself, face, arms, belly and back with Baby Powder. Really helps keep the itch away.

Baby powder huh i have been wearing a tyvek suit but it still finds its way to my skin. good video that helps a ton. what do you use when grinding i have been using an extra coarse 24 grit sanding disk

Re: my 14' tom boy project

I use 36 grit resin coated sanding discs with a rubber backup pad. Harbor Freight has em...

I'd listen to Woodsy he has saved me many times when I did and got a lot of told you so's when I didn't (and never once from him). the talc surely cuts the itch factor.

Re: my 14' tom boy project

I looked, and Looked again, and then researched but I have no clue what it is. Send a PM to OOPS he might know. Roll it out and take a pic of it as a sheet.

Re: my 14' tom boy project
