      Hi scott,

      Another good one. I dont think I have. I have got acid on myself before I’m sure but it has always been ok. I have burnt myself with liquid nitrogen before- it is so cold that it burns you!

      The scariest chemical I work with is called hydrofluric acid- this would pass through your skin and dissolve your bones!!
      We do lots of things to make sure we stay safe and what to do incase of emergency
