I Used A Product Called Scratch Out By Formula 1

Posted on Mon, 3 Feb 2020

Question: i used a product called Scratch Out by Formula 1 for taking a scratch off of my car. I got some on my hands, and after about 10 minutes I went and did a quick hand wash with soap. this rubbed it into my hands more, and I probably didnt wash my hands long enough. When i got home, i washed my hands very well. If it got absorbed into my skin could I get sick? It%E2%80%99s sort of a car wax and scratch remover. I%E2%80%99m worried about getting it on my hands. Thanks

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service
I read your query and here is my advice.

I see the photo you attached of the Scratch Out Solution and there is no certain description of the chemicals of it. It only says that contains liquid wax. It doesn't contain abrasive components or chemicals that may need special precaution to wash your hands.
Anyway systemic absorption is impossible from just hand contact.
You don't have to worry about having chemicals absorbed in blood. The absorption from hand skin is almost zero.
You will not get sick

Hope I have answered the question .
Let me know if I can assist you further.
