If you are doing lots of glueing at the same time, you could use a small fan to blow away the fumes, or a small face mask that can filter gasses.Henseleit TDR V-Bar x2

Not in the quantities we use!:)
But maybe if you work in boatbuilding or some other GRP-producing industry and are breathing in fumes all day everyday. That would be almost as dangerous as living in a city, breathing in car fumes all day:eek:Phil OB3

It would pay to heed precautions, if you to be exposed for any length of time. However, everyone who breathes air and drinks water dies. Enjoy life whilst it's there.

Time for a new poll then :D
"Does smoking really cause cancer?"
My answer would be "no", as most of the people who smoke probably use epoxy aswel :DMember of Byley Model Flying Club

Cancer is probably a small risk, the more pressing problem is the chance you can start having allergic reactions. Personally I use IPA to clean off any residue from my hands after I've used it. (so I get a nice "high" :):svengo:)
Cyno is probably a much bigger risk, both for cancer and for allergic reactions.Janek
Why does it always persist down at weekends ?Comment
