When choosing a chemical stripping solution, safety is often one of the first questions people ask, especially anyone working in manufacturing, powder coating, metal finishing, or industrial stripping.
A common concern we hear is:
“What happens if Greensolv gets on your skin?”
Here’s the good news:
Greensolv is designed to be safe, user-friendly, and far less harsh than traditional paint or coating removers.
Let’s break down what you need to know.
Does Greensolv Harm the Skin?
Short answer: No.
Greensolv does not contain methylene chloride or other aggressive chemicals that can cause burns, blisters, or chemical injuries.
It also contains:
-
No EPA-banned substances
-
No priority pollutants
-
No hazardous air pollutants (HAPs)
This makes Greensolv a safer choice compared to conventional stripping chemicals that are often toxic, volatile, and harmful upon contact.
Greensolv is designed to be green, safe, and worker-friendly, living up to the core values behind our name.
What Should You Do If Greensolv Gets on Your Skin?
Accidents happen, and if a splash or drip does land on your skin, don’t worry.
Just rinse with water for a few minutes.
No neutralizer is needed.
No special wash procedure required.
Simply rinsing the area thoroughly is enough.
Are There Any Possible Skin Effects?
For most users, there will be no reaction at all.
However, individuals with sensitive skin may experience:
-
Mild redness
-
Temporary irritation
-
A light rash that typically disappears within a day
These reactions are uncommon and usually very mild.
Even though Greensolv is engineered to be safe, it is still an industrial chemical and good safety practices always apply.
What PPE Should You Wear When Working with Greensolv?
To ensure maximum protection and the highest safety standards, we recommend wearing:
-
Chemical-resistant apron
-
Long sleeves
-
Protective boots
-
Face mask or goggles
-
VOC cartridges when working around vapors
These recommendations align with standard industrial safety procedures and help ensure that workers remain protected and comfortable during operation.
Why Choose a Safer Stripping Solution?
Using a chemical that’s less toxic, non-corrosive, and non-HAP reduces:
-
Skin irritation risks
-
Airborne health hazards
-
The need for neutralizers
-
Workplace safety incidents
-
Employee discomfort or PPE overload
A safer chemistry means a safer workplace and a more efficient stripping process.
