Hi, Esteban!

You should be making sure to try to cover your skin as much as possible and PLEASE PLEASE make sure to wear a mask and eye protectant. There have been some long-term effects of inhaling insulation as well as short-term. Insulation is made of fiberglass and it has chemicals in it. If you work with this, again, please protect yourself as much as you can.

Take care of you!
