If waving solution comes in contact with the eyes or skin, what should you do?

• A. Rinse Thoroughly
• B. Apply Conditioner
• C. Wipe with Towel
• D. Reapply Solution

Answer: (A)

When waving solution contacts eyes or skin, the priority is to dilute and remove the chemical as quickly as possible. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm running water right away, flushing the eyes for at least 15 minutes and using an eyewash if available. For skin exposure, wash the area with soap and water and remove any contaminated clothing. After rinsing, monitor for irritation and seek medical attention if redness, burning, or vision changes persist. Using conditioner won’t neutralize or remove the chemical, wiping with a towel can spread it, and reapplying the solution would only increase exposure.
